A Quilt for Baby

32 pp. | Candlewick | February, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-7636-1925-6 $$15.99
(4) K-3 A new mother tells her baby the story of the quilt she's sewing. Each square introduces an animal on their farm and the animal's offspring. The endpapers show the completed quilt, and each page is bordered as if part of the quilt, too. Lewis's warm colors and gentle pencil strokes convey her affection for the farm setting, but the sentimental text will likely have more appeal to new parents than to children.
