Loose Threads | Isol
Leilah lives in a beautiful, orderly village where everything seems to have its proper place, much like the carefully stitched scenes in her grandmother’s embroidery. But just beyond this tidy world lies the mysterious Other Side—a tangled, unruly place filled with strange creatures, unexpected adventures, and loose threads.
Inspired by a Palestinian scarf, Loose Threads explores what can happen when we venture beyond what is neat and familiar. Through Leilah’s journey, readers are invited to discover beauty in imperfection, possibility in disorder, and the value of following the threads that lead somewhere unexpected.
Written and illustrated by Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award winner Isol, this imaginative picture book pairs textile-inspired artwork with a story that feels wonderfully suited to children who love making, storytelling, and looking at the world a little differently.
