1) Paperback Book Eight Hands Round: A Patchwork Alphabet by HarperTrophy. This is a great book to help children learn historical events as well as make meaningful connections to math and quilting. It would be fun to have them make a quilt of their own. The ABC format adds to the charm of the book¤ 2) Paperback Book Eight Hands Round: A Patchwork Alphabet by HarperTrophy. As an elementary school teacher, I incorporate the whole language philosophy into my classroom. I spent an entire month linking the curriculum of my school district to Ms. Ann Whitford Paul´s literature. My students learned about math, science, social studies and reading using "Quilts" as our theme. We created individual quilt squares to represent each of my 33 students and I lovingly sewed them together. Quality literature is at the core of my teaching. Eight Hands Round demonstrated such quality and brought joy to my classroom.¤ 3) Paperback Book Eight Hands Round: A Patchwork Alphabet by HarperTrophy. "Paul provides information about pioneer life through speculation about the origins of 26 quilt patterns, one for each letter of the alphabet. The variety of colors and designs makes the quilts themselves the real stars of the book [and] will [encourage] students to develop their own creations in cloth or on paper." —SLJ.
