From the theft of his sheep to his grandson's breaking a leg, the old weaver only says "It's all for the best," leading the townspeople to wonder if he's crazy. And he keeps on weaving his rugs. A greater lesson is learned when the king's soldiers come to town, looking for able-bodied men.
Based on a traditional Eastern story, Hans Wilhelm's whimsical watercolor illustrations perfectly complement this tale of patience and wisdom.
