From the bestselling author of The Red Sweater comes another tale for kids 2 to 6.
Jane has some ideas about how to dress and what to wear and that means JEANS! So, when her mother suggests she wear a frilly dress to visit her Grandma, Jane must think quick. You can’t climb a tree in a dress, or ride a skateboard in a dress, she pleads.
Mom gently reminds Jane that she is loved, no matter what she wears. She is much more than her clothes.
Jane’s scruffy little dog has his own idea of what to do with a pair of jeans and provides a surprise happy ending, that will keep kids smiling and reinforce Mom’s valuable lesson. When Jane finds out that her new jeans have been destroyed, instead of being angry, she comes up with a creative way to make something new out of the torn up scraps.
Kids will learn about self-confidence, appreciation and sacrifice. There’s even a subtle little plug for recycling!
A perfect story for Easter, Valentine's Day, birthdays or any other holiday or occassion when a reluctant child may not want to dress up.
