Undeterred by her more decorous family, Ella Sarah insists on wearing a flashy outfit of her choosing. Happily, her friends arrive for tea wearing equally outrageous costumes. In this lap-sized board book version of the Caldecott Honor book, the illustrations retain their distinctive patterns, colors, and sizes. The heavy pages will stand up well to repeat readings.

Ella Sarah is determined to put on a wild, colorful outfit that includes her "pink polka-dot pants" and her "dress with orange-and-green flowers." Her family tries to change her mind, but Ella Sarah knows what she's doing; soon her friends arrive for a tea party, all wildly dressed up themselves. The agreeable story is illustrated with an attractive mix of patterns and colors.
