Reviews - The Canada Geese Quilt

Publisher's Weekly - "In one gorgeous, slim volume, Kinsey-Warnock tells a story of a particular time, from spring to fall, in a 10-year-old's life... Kinsey-Warnock's language is simple and direct as it conveys both the loving relationship between the old woman and the girl, and the girl's love of the land." (July, 29, 1989 review)
