A fun and fashionable read! Also contains lessons on not getting upset about small things, fixing problems, and reusing material!

This has to be the cutest book I've read since Crown: An Ode to the Fresh Cut by Derrick Barnes. The illustrations go so well with the story. This book is about a little girl who learns one key to life is to go with the flow.

A little girl with a favorite dress discovers what can be made of clothes when we outgrow them. No need to get rid of her favorite dress, she can make it into a t-shirt! And then a tank top, a skirt, etc. If you have a budding fashionista in your house, this is definitely a book to check out!
The illustration are unique, with the artist using a collage-type medium with pencils, paints, and 3D elements and a fun to just look at...I discovered new things the closer I looked. I loved the creativity aspect and the idea of encouraging kids to reuse things they love and make memories out of them, rather than always buying new.

Personally, I found this a bit tiresome to reread over and over, but the kids kept asking for it. The fashion element definitely appealed to them (my nieces insist on wearing beautiful dresses every day) and the pattern storytelling allowed them to try to anticipate what would come next. The illustrations are beautiful - I love how they bring the character and her family to life.

I had a favorite dress follows a little girl's favorite dress as it morphs from a dress to a skirt, to a tank top, etc. Her mother shows her ingenuity by continually transforming the little girls dress so she can always keep it with her. Very much like the giving tree but with a fashion twist.

Have a child who has a favorite piece of clothing? This little girls mother makes sure her daughter's beloved dress never gets thrown away. It becomes just a skirt to a scarf to a hair bow!
I love the illustrations in this. I also love the resourceful mother who keeps that favorite dress a favorite piece in her daughters wardrobe for years.
