review 1: Karla has a quilt (names Mooshka) her grandma made her. The quilt is magical...it talks to her. The quilt tells her the stories that come from each scrap of fabric of what it was before being made into the quilt. One piece was a table cloth that loved being made into a tent. Another piece was a cape her mother wore as a little girl. And another was Halloween costume for the dog. Karla loves her quilt but can't figure out why it stops talking to her when her baby sister arrives. Until she learns that now it is her turn to share the stories.Beautiful and very colorful illustrations. I am excited to meet the author/illustrator Julie Paschkis in March when she visits our library.
review 2: One of our librarians gave us this when helping us get books featuring Q. W... morehile Natalie wasn't that into it, I loved it. I think it was still just a bit too complex for her. I liked the focus on the colors. But what was really awesome was the way the quilt told her stories connected with each fabric. I really liked the mystical element. A very sweet ending passing the quilt on to the baby, too. less
