Margaret Chodos-Irvine comes from a long line of craftspeople, so she approaches her work as if tailoring a suit or cobbling a shoe. It all has to fit and look beautiful at the same time. To do so, she uses a variety of techniques to create innovative patterns, vivid colors, and uniquely textured imagery in her work. She has illustrated 13 books for children and has been recognized with starred reviews and other honors, most notably a 2004 Caldecott Honor Award for Ella Sarah Gets Dressed, which she both wrote and illustrated. Margaret lives in Seattle, Washington with her crafty family.

Ella Sarah Gets Dressed von Margaret Chodos-Irvine
A cute little story! A strong-willed little girl knows exactly what she wants to wear and sticks to it despite the pressure from family members to wear something less fancy. I was charmed by the closing pages that reveal that sticking to her choice of clothing is not just a whim of childish stubbornness on Ella Sarah's part.

This is about a girl who knows what she wants to wear and all of her family wants to wear something different, but in the end, we come to find all of her friends are wearing the same thing. This I would use in my class to present individualism. Good for ages 1st-2nd
The story of a young girl Ella Sarah, who know exactly what she want to wear. Despite her family's efforts to convince her to wear more practical clothes, Ella Sarah remain determined to express herself through her unique style. The book uses beautiful illustration and encourage individuality and freedom to express oneself creativity.
