Little Girl in a Red Dress with Cat and Dog

32 pp. January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-670-87183-4
(2) K-3 Inspired by a painting in the Museum of Folk Art in New York City, the author has imagined the story that lies behind it. The tale of the lively little girl, youngest in her large family, is one that will be familiar to children and is illustrated with paintings in a folk-art style, stiff but colorful and detailed. An informative and personal author's note concludes the satisfying story, set in the 1830s.
