A moving refugee story, told through the language of knitting.Knit one.
Purl one.
Oh no there goes another stitch: and a family of mice watches its nest unravel.
They flee across the water, past a fire-breathing dragon, toward the unknown.
At last the family lands in a place where they can gather the strings of their past and their present together.
With the help of some new friends, they can knit a new life.Illustrated with colored-pencil drawings and plenty of yarn, this poetic book is a gentle way to discuss migration and displacement with children.Thread by Threadexpresses both the pain of losing a home and the joy of creating a new place to belong.
