<b>"Incredibly clever illustrations . . . heavy-hitting text . . . A solid introspection and thoughtful metaphor, great for introducing young readers to the concept of immigration or supplementing older readers' interest in the topic." -- <i>Booklist</i> (STARRED REVIEW)</b><br> <br> <i>A moving refugee story, told through the language of knitting.</i><br> <br> Knit one. Purl one. Oh no--there goes another stitch: and a family of mice watches its nest unravel. They flee across the water, past a fire-breathing dragon, toward the unknown. At last the family lands in a place where they can gather the strings of their past and their present together. With the help of some new friends, they can knit a new life.<br> <br> Illustrated with colored-pencil drawings and plenty of yarn, this poetic book is a gentle way to discuss migration and displacement with children. <i>Thread by Thread</i> expresses both the pain of losing a home--and the joy of creating a new place to belong.
