A Story of Adventure and Courage...

Summary: Anna stitches a handmade coat for her twelve-year-old daughter, Abigail. In excitement, Abigail puts it on and embraces her mama with a hug and a kiss. Anna then asks her to put away the sewing materials. As Abigail places them in the basket, her eyes stumble across a Jewish badge tucked away between some old fabric. Curious, she takes it out and shows it to her mama, as she has never seen it before. Anna's heart skips a beat as she struggles to tell Abigail about the Holocaust and her birth parents—a moment that brings memories of the past into their present. Tearfully, Abigail asks her in a low, almost muted voice if she would kindly sew it onto her winter coat. Reluctantly, Anna agrees. The coat soon becomes part of many intriguing stories as Abigail and her best friend, Rachel, journey through their coal-mining town.
