I Had a Favorite Dress by Boni Ashburn
4.0
Review originally posted at www.apatchworkofbooks.com
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.
