About this item
A New York Times best illustrated picture book winner, Amy Schwartz has created an endearing picture book about sisters working together. Four strong-minded sisters go shopping, each hoping to create a distinctive look. Charlie Ann wants to dress like a cowgirl, Ava a princess, and Isabell all in purple. Baby Poppy is completely set on polka dots. All of the girls find something to satisfy their tastes, except for Poppy. But while Mom and baby sister sleep the three older sisters get artsy with their waterproof markers. A bewildered Mom and delighted Poppy wake up to find a new polka dot wardrobe. This spunky, colorful and sweet book is a tribute to being resourceful and creative.
