Illustrated by
Sandra Suy.
After trying on a gown at a "fashionista vintage sale," seventh grader Louise finds herself aboard a fancy 1900s ocean liner. She's delighted to be mistaken for, and wear the clothes of, a wealthy actress--until she realizes she's on the Titanic. The writing is stiff and the story line predictable, but full-color illustrations and similarly colorful clothing descriptions will appeal to fashion lovers.
