My Thoughts:
Gorgeous pictures and wonderfully written. I loved that it explained each patch. As the book went along and each patch point was hit, the book showed it again. A little sad (as to be expected with this type of book) but still really good and child appropriate. Yet, still done well enough for adults to enjoy as well. This is the second underground railroad type of picture book that I own. The first being "Under the Quilt of Night". Looking forward to owning others like this in the future. This will need to be replaced eventually because the pages are taped to hold them in the book. That is how the book came to me because I ordered it used (former library book).
This book counts in one seasonal challenge (lasts about 2 months) and one readathon (lasts one week) I am doing (Seasonal Challenge: Spring 2019 & Spring into reading a thon).
