When their parents announce a fancy party, the five older Bartlett-Kruger sisters disappoint Charlotte, the youngest, with their hand-me-down options. In the end, they surprise her with a kindhearted solution. The stylishly detailed illustrations pay special attention to furniture patterns and decor, though the text isn't as memorable. Nevertheless, the story will delight dress-up enthusiasts and budding upcyclers.
