Too Purpley!

(4) PS Illustrated by Geneviève Leloup. A girl hates her clothes: "Too purpley, / Too tickly, / Too puckery, / Too prickly," etc. Each adjective is accompanied by a visually stunning illustration (readers may shield their eyes at "too stripey"), ensuring an eager page-turn to see what Leloup comes up with next. The story doesn't go anywhere, but the rhyming text is fun to read aloud.
