It's as beautiful and perfect as the scenes in her grandmother's embroidery. But some believe that just on the flipside of this orderly village lies the Other Side--a messy and wild world, filled with merry inhabitants and strange beasts. Leilah often visits just such a place in her dreams. \u003cp\u003e Leilah is constantly losing things, and when her mom demands an explanation, Leilah decides that her lost possessions must be falling down into the Other Side. And so, she declares that all she has to do to fix things is mend the holes between her world and the Other Side. It's a genius idea--nothing will ever go missing again! But as Leilah soon learns, some holes don't need sewing up, and mending can also mean a suffocating shutting out... \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Inspired by one of her favorite scarves, here Isol spins a tale that celebrates the different worlds that are all part of life's rich tapestry. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lawrence Schimel, Isol","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46335293751532,"sku":"9781592703920","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/1791\/3068\/files\/9781592703920.jpg?v=1743637994","url":"https:\/\/intl.allstora.com\/products\/loose-threads-a-picture-book","provider":"Allstora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
