Lovely, Delightful Illustrations

I love the illustrations in this book. They reflect such joy, love, and contentment. A treasure!

Reads like a Hand Stitched Quilt Made With Love!

I just received this book and it is already becoming a favorite of mine as well as my 3 year old daughter. The story reads beautifully and delicate, like an enchanting poem. It stirs all the senses, and the gorgeous illustrations bring it all together in a warm, cozy feeling. I'd call this a "home cooked" book. It truly feels like we own a little piece of magic in this book. A great bedtime read.

-----A nostalgic and unforgettable story-----

THE MOON QUILT by Sunny Warner is enchanting! It's the story about the last few months in the life of an older lady. In the story she is referred to as the "old woman." Her days are spent sitting with her cat and dreaming. When she's awake the cat sleeps and when the old lady sleeps the cat is awake! The lady is dreaming of her old man who was lost at sea. In her dreams he is crossing from his boat to a rainbow which reaches to the moon. She decides to sew her dream into a lovely quilt. The old woman never forgets her daily chores and also works in the garden and plants pumpkins. Her evenings are spent working on her quilt. Her quilt is becoming a story and she sews a picture of herself and her cat onto the fabric. When Halloween comes she makes delicious pumpkin pies for children who live nearby. The children arrive dressed in costumes and have a fun evening carving pumpkins and eating pie! The old lady sews the entire Halloween experience with the children into the quilt. One evening as winter approaches the old woman and her cat sit outside watching the moon and they both fall sleep. The last illustration shows where they went. The story is told simply and the book has many colorful pictures. This book is proof that good and meaningful stories are being written for young children
