Ella Sarah Gets Dressed by Margaret Chodos-Irvine
2004 Caldecott Honor
My daughter loves to dress up and I enjoyed sharing this book with her. It's a story about a little girl who gets up and says "I want to wear my pink polka-dot pants, my dress with orange-and-green flowers, my purple-and-blue striped socks, my yellow shoes, and my red hat."
Mom, Dad, and big sister all try and talk her out of it, but it turns out to be the perfect outfit!
The pictures are prints (looks like silk screens to me, but the book says "a variety of printmaking techniques." And are bold and colorful.
I can't rave about this book, it's not that exciting for me, but it's a sweet read.
