Industry Reviews
"A promotion of girl power . . . girl-centric playtime, role play, and friendship." -- Kirkus Reviews
"What does it mean to "dress like a girl?" The six youngsters in this title show that there are no restrictions when it comes to answering that question... The girls-can-do-anything theme rings loud and clear and is presented with energy in an entertaining format." -- ALA Booklist
"Tu-Dean captures the joy of dressing up, friendship, and discovery in her mixed-media art. Fashion is limitless and fun, Toht suggests-but it's not so much the clothes that matter as the individual underneath." -- Publishers Weekly
