Illustrated by
Alice Priestley.
While Rosie is thrilled that her two moms are getting married, she's disappointed that it won't be a fancy wedding, just family and close friends for "a Saturday party at the cottage." Rosie's dashed flower-girl fantasies don't provide quite enough plot, but the text is easygoing and conversational and well matched by gently-toned and -textured illustrations.
