#MusicalNewYear Day 12: Annie tries to hold back time, as in a #TimeWarp when her Grandmother declared that she will die as soon as the rug is taken out from the loom. Annie cannot understand why her own mother continues to weave the new rug when it would signify the death of her grandmother. Thus, Annie unravels the woven rug, undoing her mother‘s work during the day, just so she could get time to stand still. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-62c

A grandma teaches her granddaughter about life and death.
Wonderful illustrations and a story that brings a multitude of emotions. I can see why it won a #NewberyHonor medal.

heidisreads That looks good! What year was it an honor book? 6y
keys_on_fire It was written in 1971, so I believe it would have been an honor book in ‘72. It was good! 6y
