Bright illustrations—a cacophony of colorful energy—breathe life into this tale of generosity's vibrant power. In the style of Jan Brett, this author-illustrator team shows how selflessness expands a sphere of influence and how meeting needs by giving generously, even sacrificially, leads to true happiness. An infectious message relevant for all time. When a generous quiltmaker finally agrees to make a quilt for a greedy king but only under certain conditions, she causes him to undergo a change of heart.
