Something from Nothing by Phoebe Gilman

See below for English description.

Lorsque Joseph tait b b , son grandpapa lui avait fabriqu une merveilleuse couverture pour le garder bien au chaud et chasser ses mauvais r ves. Au fil des jours, la couverture s'est us e, mais le grand-papa a toujours su trouver un nouvel usage aux bouts d' toffe qui avaient r sist au temps. C'est ainsi que la couverture d'origine est tour tour devenue un manteau, une veste, une cravate, un mouchoir, un bouton puis... Une merveilleuse histoire empreinte d'amour et de sagesse, que les enfants ne se lasseront pas de lire et relire.

Joseph's grandfather made him a beautiful blanket when he was a baby, but now it's frazzled and worn, and Joseph's mother says it is time to throw it out. Joseph doesn't want to part with his special blanket, and he's sure that his grandfather can fix it. Sure enough, Grandfather miraculously alters the blanket into useful items again and again. But when Joseph loses the final item, even Grandfather can't make something from nothing. But maybe Joseph can?
