Back when I was a young adult and could wear standard sizes, I loved thrift stores' clothes. So fun to create clever outfits. I wish my mom had been willing to buy clothes with a history, clothes with a mystery..." instead of being thrifty in a way that decreed new clothes but only enough to get through the week. This book is almost perfect. I love that the girl can do enough sewing to raise (or lower) hems, apply applique, or tuck a waist. I love how sweet she is with her baby brother. I love that she's girly, but also imaginative, adventurous, and unafraid of noise and dirt, too. I also see no reason a boy couldn't enjoy this story as well. And of course with modern concerns about being 'green' and the movement to repurpose as well as recycle, we have even more reasons to love old clothes, old table wear, old linens, old toys, old books, and old furniture than simple thrift. Every library should have a copy of this book. But, ironically, every family should not... unless they bought it used....." A great book for teaching children how to appreciate valuables. Some are not as fortunate as others and teaching children how to be grateful for what they have is needed, especially in this society. I like this book a lot and commend Hoberman on her powerful message she wants her readers to take from this book. I also like the use of imagery Hoberman uses when the main character imagines where her hand-me-down clothes once belonged. Barton also did a good job illustrating the book. I love the old- fashioned and worn out clothes she drew that really makes the story come to life. Great book! This book is about a little girl who loves old clothes. She raves about how she loves things that aren't in style, and she wonders about the lives of the people who wore the clothes last. She even wonders who will wear them next! From this book, children who wear hand-me-down clothes would have an easy time relating to the little girl, and they would love their clothes even more. For children who do not like old clothes, maybe this book could change their mind. They could see how much fun you can have with old clothes and styles. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

" I like old clothes I really do. Clothes with a history. Clothes with a mystery."
