About the Book

Lee and his older sister Zora head to the library, where Mrs. C is teaching the children how to sew. Though Zora sews a beautiful flower on her cloth square, little Lee makes a mess out of the half-moon he is trying to stitch. Zora, always the boss, tries to teach him—their sibling relationship is both tested and strengthened in this story about mending.
