The Weaver

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Elisa Kleven. All day, the weaver watches Earth from above, weaving what she sees into a wondrous coat full of memories; the coat "drifts down" from the nighttime sky, bringing protection to the sleeping people below. Hurd's abstract text is lyrical and dreamy. Kleven's vivid, exuberant paintings draw readers in to search for tiny images from Earth repeated in the fabric.
