Reviews for Patrick's Polka-Dot Tights

[librarianryan · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This is such a perfect book. Patrick loves his sister's pair of purple polka dot tights. Loves them! He wears them, he plays with them, he holds rescue operations. They are much more than a pair of tights to him. His parents are completely accepting. This is just Patrick being Patrick. And I loved every single page. Shout out to the illustrator who helped bring this wonderful story to life.
