Discover the magic of patterns and the power of fixing things in this heartwarming children's book. Written and illustrated by New York Times bestselling illustrator Lauren Semmer, this book shows that each pattern is unique, but together they can be magical--just like families!

Poppy is sad when her toy bunny's dress rips. Now she'll have to throw it away! But her mom has other ideas. She shows Poppy the trunk in her sewing room, and it's full of fabric scraps!
There are so many patterns--dots and stripes, checkers and chevron. Each scrap has its own story. Fabric from Granddad's tie, Nana's dress, and her auntie's scarf come together with Mom's sewing machine to make something special--just like their family!
New York Times bestselling illustrator Lauren Semmer weaves an introduction to patterns in this heartwarming story of family history and traditions.

About the Author
Lauren Semmer is a bestselling children's book illustrator who grew up in a community of Black, home-textile artists. When she isn't making picture books, like The ABC's of Black History, written by Rio Cortez, and To Boldly Go: How Nichelle Nichols and Star Trek Helped Advance Civil Rights, written by Angela Dalton, she collects fabric scraps and dreams of having her own fabric line. Like Poppy, she's not afraid to wear ALL the patterns at the same time. This is her authorial debut.
