Oma's Quilt

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Stephane Jorisch. After Emily's grandmother moves into a retirement home, Emily and her mother sew a quilt from scraps of Oma's past hoping to make the new place seem more like home. Although Emily seems wise beyond her years, Oma is a likable, believable character. The stylized watercolor illustrations help develop Oma's character and the story.
