A New Coat for Anna by Harriet Ziefert
Illus. in full color. A fresh and moving story of a mother's dedication to acquire a coat for her daughter in post-World War I hard times. Anna's mother decides to trade the few valuables she has left for wool and for the services of a spinner, a weaver, and a tailor. Lobel's pictures do a tremendous job of evoking the period. Insightful and informative, this may make children consider how precious the ordinary can become in times of turmoil.--(starred) Booklist.| SKU | Unavailable |
