A sweater with a surprise

Mollie knows exactly what she wants: a rainbow-colored sweater decorated with a heart and a bunny. Grandma’s knitted version is colorful and unique, but it doesn’t match Mollie’s expectations—and its tendency to unravel complicates the gift. The story builds its small conflict around the gap between imagining something just so and receiving a handmade alternative, leaving the question of the sweater’s worth open in the description.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A fit for young children and adults sharing a story about a child’s strong preferences.
  • For families interested in stories about handmade gifts and appreciating differences.

Book overview

Mollie has her heart set on the perfect sweater-it has all the colours of the rainbow, a heart, and even a bunny. She just has to have it! But when Grandma knits her one instead, things don't go quite as planned. It's colourful, it's one of a kind, and it just might unravel more than Mollie expected.

Is this the worst sweater ever...or the most wonderful one of all?
