Synopsis
In this charming historical novel, acclaimed artist Lauren A. Mills reimagines her beloved picture book, "The Rag Coat," with fifty delicate pencil illustrations and an expanded story about a resilient little girl, her patchwork coat, and how the two bring a community together. Minna and her family don't have much in their small Appalachian cabin, but "people only need people," Papa always reminds her. Unable to afford a winter coat to wear to school, she's forced to use an old feed sack to keep her warm. Then Papa's terrible cough from working in the coal mines takes him away forever, and Minna has a hard time believing that anything will be right again...until her neighbors work tirelessly to create a coat for her out of old fabric scraps. Now Minna must show her teasing classmates that her coat is more than just rags--it's a collection of their own cherished memories, each with a story to share., Minna's papa died from working in the coal mines, and now she can't afford a winter coat to wear to school. When friends and neighbors make one from their fabric scraps, her classmates tease her about her rags--until she reminds them that her coat contains pieces of clothing that were once important to each of them; it's the stories they share that have turned her rags into a treasure., In this charming historical novel, acclaimed artist Lauren A.
