Críticas

An Oregon trail story, based on the wandering foot quilting pattern. My kids all love collecting objects, so the idea of piecing together a quilt from experiences along the trail resonates with them.

When her brother goes off to school, Amanda finds new things to do, including ballet dancing, cleaning her room, and making a very sad, mad day go away, with the help of hugs from Mother Pig.
