Jeff Brumbeau’s prequel to the best-selling THE QUILTMAKER’S GIFT, illustrated with Gail de Marcken’s rich, sumptuously detailed paintings, will be embraced by new and old fans of the Quiltmaker. Escaping from the protective walls of wealth and privilege, a young girl discovers the harsh world outside, where some people don’t have as much as others.

Making the loveliest quilts in all the land, the young girl decides to give them away.
