Reviews for Too Purpley!

[mmontet_1 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book is sure to catch the attention of preschoolers as many have the clothing issue that the girl in the book has: she can't agree on an outfit to wear! There are many different adjectives in the book to describe all of the different textures of her clothes. Plus, there is a cute turtle sidekick wearing the same outfit as the girl every time she changes! The turtle is sure to get a few laughs, and it's a good book to teach textures with.

This book is good for young and early readers who are learning about different kinds of patterns or materials. It also goes through colors and goes through the idea of what the word "too" means. "Too Itchy, Too scratchy"

This book is the cutest book ever, it is about a little girl who has a closet full of nothing to wear. She tries on everything in her closet. It reminds me of myself, even being an adult now. I love it! It is definitily a cute book to share!

Little girls can be picky when it comes to choosing clothes, and this one is no different.
