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.

  • 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!

    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.
