Book Overview

by Larissa Theule (Author), Teagan White (Illustrator)

An unforgettable picture book about the power of kindness and the importance of community.

As Holly takes her morning stroll in the thicket, she comes across a small bird. It was plain to see he'd been through some things. The bird is alone and trying to find shelter for the winter. And Holly knows exactly what to do to help.

Illustrating the transformative role a community can play in caring for its members, The Sweater is a powerful and poignant tale of compassion and acceptance.
