About this product

Product Information

A delightful twist on the O. Henry classic The Gift of the Magi, starring a weaver and six angry, naked geese. From award-winning author and storyteller Carmen Agra Deedy. When children approach Agatha wanting to know the source of the beautiful fabrics in her weaving shop, she always recites a simple verse. Everything comes from something, Nothing comes from nothing. Just like paper comes from trees, And glass comes from sand, An answer comes from a question. All you have to do is ask. Agatha spins yarn and weaves cloth like no other, and she's worked hard to sell enough wares to buy a brand new feather bed. However, when six angry, naked geese show up to get their feathers back, Agatha must reckon with how precious resources can be. New York Times best-selling author Carmen Agra Deedy puts a delightful twist on the O. Henry story The Gift of the Magi, reminding us of the delicate balance between our resources and responsibilities.

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

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!

  • Agatha's Feather Bed by Carmen Deedy (1994)

    At the age of 48, I am in school to become an elementary school teacher. This book was shared in a reading class I took this past semester. I decided this would be an excellent selection for my class library. Also, I am a new 1st time Grandma and I know my grandaughter and I will be reading a lot together and this book will be great to share with her. The book is such a sweet book about a little old lady, her new feather bed, and the geese who donated their feathers for the new bed. I would recommend this book for parents or grandparents to purchase for their children/grandchildren...they are never to young to read to!!! Happy Reading!

  • Agathas feather bed

    I bought this book to use with middle school prose UIL students. It is a fun book that has a lot of play on words.
