<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Even though there is no money, Anna's mother finds a way to make Anna a badly needed winter coat.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>A fresh and moving story of a mother's dedication to acquire a coat for her daughter in post-World War II 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 review) <i>Booklist</i><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Harriet Ziefert</b> is the author of hundreds of children's books and the publisher of Blue Apple Books in Maplewood, New Jersey.
