Too Purpley!

Written by Jean Reidy
Illustrated by Geneviève Leloup

Book Description

“Neatly constructed rhymes carry through to the girl’s selection of sneakers, a pullover, jumper, and pair of pants—she rejects all the Fancy Nancy finery for sensible everyday wear. …A clothing-obsessed readership awaits."—Publishers Weekly

“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
