A little turtle carries the memory of a best friend. A shy girl's crocheted creatures rise up to defend her school from the dark. A blanket stitched square by square becomes a bridge between generations. By a stream in the woods, a girl meets a boy with a carving knife and a secret. And next door, two children begin to mend a grieving couple's heart with animals made by hand.
Tender and whimsical, The Yarn Army and other stories is a short story collection about the things we make...and the ways they help us hold on, let go, and find each other again.
Perfect for readers 7 years and above who love heartfelt middle grade stories filled with friendship, family, wonder, and hope.
