How will The Tiny Woman’s Coat be made? Could she find cloth from the leaves- ‘rustle, rustle, rustle‘? Yet what of scissors? Then again, what of thread? Could the ‘friendly horse‘ help? Then again, won’t the coat need buttons? From where will they come?
We read along, recite and remember, with the ‘snip, snip, snip’ and ‘stitch, stitch, stitch’ through the natural rhyme of the story.
Thereafter, what has the tiny woman created? For what does she need a coat?
The Tiny Woman’s Coat is a New Zealand classic story by one of that country’s most beloved and acclaimed storytellers, Joy Cowley. Gecko Press has recreated her story with autumnal toned pictures, set deep within the natural world, from Giselle Clarkson. What’s more, the square shape and tantalising pages, are delightful. Altogether, The Tiny Woman’s Coat inspires us to read along, make the sounds and movements, recite and treasure a delightful story for younger years.
