The girl lived behind a wall where everyone in the town was rich. She thought that this was true of everyone in the world until went to see what was on the other side of the wall. It was not until she went to the other side of the wall that she realized not everyone in the world was like her. People were sleeping on the ground without a bed or blanket while others cried of hunger. There was unhappiness and helplessness everywhere. She went back to her town to ask for help but was denied. She then lost all of her money and began making quilts for the people who did not have a way to keep warm. This story shows great character development because the girl was rich but because she wanted to help others, she had to give up everything she had. This story also conveys a great message for children. You do not have to be rich to be happy and generous. ( )

The Quilt Maker’s Journey tells a beautiful story of generosity and finding happiness.
A girl who lived in a walled city had everything. She lived a charmed life with more riches than she knew what to do with. But with all of her fortune, she still was not happy. After traveling outside the walls that confined her, she found that many were not as fortunate as her. By helping those in need, she finds the happiness and purpose she had been craving.
I thought this was such a charming story. I love the fairytale-like wonder that’s portrayed in this book. The vivid pops of color make the illustrations so captivating as well. The moral of the story is thoughtfully conveyed in a way that would be easy for children to understand. Although it is for children, I think adults can learn a strong lesson from the story as well: you don’t have to be rich to be a generous or caring person. Truly a lovely book! ( )

This is the story of a quiltmaker who lived high on the top of a mountain and made quilts for the people in need. As a young girl she lived in a walled town where everyone was rich and had everything they could ever need. When her parents died, she was given the family money and home and she lived a good life. But they money did not make her happy, and all she wanted was something that would make her happy. One day she did what she was told to never do, and she went outside of the walls that surrounded the city. She saw the poverty that was surrounding their walled town, and all of the people who had nothing at all. She did not think this was right and she decided to leave her rich life and try to help those in need in any way that she could. She made quilts for those in need, and when she needed anything nature and good people provided it for her. One theme in the book would be oblivious and detached. The quiltmaker lived a life not knowing what poor was and that people lived different lifestyles than her. This book would be a great book to expose to kids about how everyone is different and lives different lives. Sometimes we don’t know what people do and do not have and we need to make an effort not to judge others for the life they live, but to help people in need. ( )

Pretty, but twee and incoherent/ illogical.  If everyone" in the walled town is so rich, why are the servants putting turkey legs in their pockets?  Even, why are there servants?   I like the book design, though, with lots of images on each page showing different goings on, or the same scene (as the primary pic) over a passage of time, etc." ( )

52 months- we loved the other Quiltmaker story and this one didn't disappoint either... And beautifully illustrated as well. ( )
