A very old overcoat is recycled numerous times into a variety of garments until nothing remains.
Joseph, the tailor, is very resourceful. When his overcoat becomes old and worn, he makes it into a jacket, then his jacket into a vest. And so on until he has nothing left - then he even makes something out of that!
When Joseph's overcoat got too shabby, he kept making a variety of garments from this one article of clothing. By flipping the pages, children can guess what Joseph will be making next. Color illustrations throughout.
"Joseph had a little overcoat, but it was full of holes - just like this book! When Joseph's coat got too old and shabby, he made it into a jacket. But what did he make it into after that? And after that? As you turn the pages of this book, die-cut holes are cleverly used to show what Joseph will make next out of his old clothing until... well... he has nothing... and then he even makes something out of that."--Book Jacket.
