(2) K-3 A young boy who desperately wants knowledge consults a Grand Master, who sends him on a quest for a carpet. The carpetmaker agrees to help, but only if the boy brings him some thread. The boy continues on through a chain of people, helping and being helped in this cumulative teaching-tale from the Sufi tradition. Dazzling collage illustrations set the personae of the tale against muted, spatter-paint backgrounds.
