A
Quilt for Baby. As a mother sews, she talks to
her baby about the quilt she is
making. Stitched into the squares
are pictures representing their
farm, including many baby animals:
puppy, lamb, calf, foal, chick,
gosling, kid, and kitten. After she
finishes the quilt, the mother wraps
her baby in it and quietly
recapitulates the pictures appliqued
onto it. The baby falls asleep. The
rhythmic text flows along in a
soothing way, making this a good,
soporific story for bedtime. A
typical spread in this large-format
picture book features a big picture
showing a scene in the house or
around the farm and, on the opposite
page, a smaller picture of a quilt
square representing the same
subject. Click on the title to
