I like the story, illustration is super cute.
Was great for my five year old who takes hours to get dressed claiming nothing fits right. She told me tomorrow I can mix and match mommy so I’ll be comfortable but still pretty.
It was ok but alot of clothing I do not know of
It was interesting how she decided to do something different at the end,which was to mix and match.
Good book, it’s very relatable just how children books should be but to add some words weren’t words every kid would know maybe only kids who spoke a certain language.
Site Editor – Many books are culture specific, this book is a wonderful book for clothes in the Indian region, but I agree it would be great to make a western version – the book itself is creative commons, where derivatives are allowed, so we will try to make a western version for you soon!
this book is really interesting because it had lots of rhyme in it so it made me happy
