ABOUT THE BOOK: Yazzy is a creative girl, always sketching out her next adventure. She loves yarn, and she loves to knit! Her neighborhood park is dull and rusty, but Yazzy has a grand plan.
With a little help from her friends, Yazzy’s knitted wonders transform Penny Park into a fuzzy rainbow of warmth and color. What yarn-tastic idea will Yazzy think of next?
The book includes a “History of Yarn Bombing” page for readers who are not familiar with this creative and whimsical type of art.

ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATOR: Emily Calimlim, while not a knitting whiz herself, loves creating art with humorous and lively watercolor pictures for children.
