The Keeping Quilt by Patricia Polacco
4.0
The Keeping Quilt is a tale of immigration. It's a story of Jewish tradition and family tradition alike. It's an origin and an evolution, showing the progress of time and fashion and work, and all that stays the same throughout: growing, love, birth and death.
As one of Patricia Polacco's earliest works, The Keeping Quilt is sparse in both narrative and illustration. It feels as a 'family story' would, told and retold, passed down through generations along with the heirloom to which the story belongs. It's like hand-touched memories, faded of their color but not their value.
