Welcome to Litsy!

Third in the newest bunch of Munsch. It's still not as intricate, but I'm not complaining. #20-2024

For today's #PhotoChallenge word #Purple I searched in my photos and found this. I *think* it's the set from when we saw “Matilda“ in London.

I want to wear my pink polka-dot pants, my dress with orange and green flowers, my purple and blue stripped socks, my yellow shoes, AND MY RED HAT!

In the book when Ella Sarah is so set on wearing her pink polka-dot pants, dress with orange and green flowers, purple and blue stripped socks, yellow shoes, and red hat. That she wears it anyways despite what other people think of her outfit.

Ella Sarah Gets Dressed by Margaret Chodos-Irvine. This book is a Caldecott Honor Award book. This story is about a girl named Ella Sarah who wants to dress herself. Her mom, dad, and sister all try to give her other options of clothing to wear but she is set on wearing her own outfit.

“Ella Sarah thought her outfit was just right“

This book could be used when talking about individuality. I think this book would be a good social-emotional book because Ella Sarah wears what she wants even though others are telling her otherwise.

Ella Sarah Gets Dressed by Margaret Chodos-Irvine. This book was about a little girl, Ella Sarah, who knew exactly what she wanted to wear, but everyone was telling her no. The illustrates worked to show Ella's emotions and determination to wear what she wanted. Published: 2003 Caldecott Honor Book: 2004

“Ella Sarah thought her outfit was just right.“

“Ella Sarah Gets Dressed“ is a very simple book with a very simple message: be yourself! This book would be great to use with younger students at the beginning of the year to create an accepting class culture and as a reminder of how important it is to stay true to oneself, no matter what others may think or say!
