About this product

Product Information

"A fresh and moving story of a mother's dedication to acquire a coat for her daughter in post-World War II hard times. Anna's mother decides to trade the few valuables she has left for wool and for the services of a spinner, a weaver, and a tailor. Lobel's pictures do a tremendous job of evoking the period. Insightful and informative, this may make children consider how precious the ordinary can become in times of turmoil."--(starred review) Booklist

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Great Historical Picture Book

    Based on a true story in the aftermath of World War II, this picture book tells how a mother who had no money bartered what she had to get a coat for her growing daughter. It shows how cloth comes to be, and is a lovely story. My elementary-aged children enjoyed it greatly.

  • Great story for children.

    I like how this story shares the sacrifices made in order for this mother to make her daughter a coat. A part of me wishes the ending was the little girl meeting a poor child who needed the coat more than she does and she gives them the coat. However, I'm still very pleased with this story, and it teaches a child all that goes into simply the creation of a coat. It also teaches a child that they shouldn't take anything for granted.

  • Fantastic narrative of clothing made from sheep to garment.

    I love reading this book to grade school children when I am demonstrating making yarn on a spinning wheel. It gives them historic perspective on how clothing was made.

  • It takes a village.

    How delightfully told how the many hands make the coat happen. A wonderful explanation of the talents of the artisans in textiles. The mother's persistence is endearing.
