Read a sample Read a sample
As winter approaches, Mama sews a coat for her daughter from a box of scraps that someone has given her. Of course her classmates make fun of her for having a coat made of rags. Although the coat was made with love that doesn't mean the child's feelings aren't hurt, or that she didn't feel angry. In her first children's book, country music superstar Dolly Parton turns one of her songs into a sweet tale about a girl who is so poor that her mama has to sew her a patchwork coat when the weather turns cold. Despite the girl's love for her coat, she is teased in school, which she counters by trying to explain to her classmates "that one is only poor/if they choose to be."
