"My mother belongs to the hill country.
Under a blue sky chalked with clouds, she makes lovely umbrellas from the life surrounding us."
The traditional art of handmade umbrellas is found in various places in East Asia. Umbrellas tells the story of a young girl as she watches her mother, who makes homemade umbrellas in her homeland of Northern Thailand. These beautifully handcrafted umbrellas are a protection from the sun and rain, but they are more than mere umbrellas, they are works of art. This delightful book, written and illustrated by Twila Farmer, will take you along as a girl and her mother create colorful, hand-painted umbrellas in a process filled with skill, creativity, and joy.
