Review

2014 boardbook printing Illustrations are quilt like water colors. Cute story about the life of some red Christmassy fabric. It starts being used by a king, and the scraps are handed down through the village, and onto the animals in the forest. At the end of the story, there is a skating party with everyone in their new red clothes..."just how Christmas should feel".

Good for teaching organization in writing.

Overall Book Score: good
