Too Purpley!
Written by Jean Reidy
Illustrated by Geneviève Leloup
Book Description
A hip and adorable early picture book for budding young fashionistas.
Too purpley, too tickly, too puckery, too prickly!There is not a single outfit in the closet that our little fashion plate wants to wear. She tries on everything, but nothing is quite right. And the outfits are getting wilder by the minute!
It's a scene that is all too familiar to parents, wrapped up in a package that is all too difficult to resist: a playful rhyme scheme and colorful, textile-driven art.
“This fun book has lots of descriptive words that tickle the ear, great colors and patterns, and a charming protagonist.”–School Library Journal
“Fussy dressers, this one’s for you! Clothing-decision screamers and their caretakers will relate and laugh.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Children and parents are sure to identify with this girl’s sartorial issues, and Leloup’s whimsical watercolors highlight the absurdity of her choices.”— Booklist
