A quilt holds a family’s stories

In *Patchwork Memories*, a child adjusts to life after her Abuela, whose memory is changing, moves out of the family home. A visit to Abuela’s new room brings an old quilt into view: its squares each hold a story connected to a missing memory. The quilt gives the family a way to encounter their shared past as they navigate a change in how they live together. The book centers on intergenerational family bonds, memory, and the objects that can carry personal histories.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 9–12 interested in stories about grandparents and family relationships.
  • Families exploring memory loss and changes in a relative’s living situation through fiction.
  • Young readers drawn to stories where a handmade object connects family members with shared memories.

Book overview

A child loves that her Abuela lives with her family, but Abuela's memory isn't what it used to be.

Sometimes she'll start telling stories and won't be able to finish them. Eventually, the time comes for her to move out. Home feels lonely without Abuela. However, when the family visits Abuela in her new room, the grandchild discovers a beautiful old quilt, with each square containing the story of a missing memory.

Monica Rojas and Luisa Uribe deliver a heartfelt story about the love and shared experiences that bring families together, even in the hardest of times.
