Ella Sarah wants to wear her "pink polka-dot pants, my dress with orange-and-green flowers, my purple-and-blue striped socks, my yellow shoes, and [her] red hat!" Her family tries to get her to change her mind and wear something that isn't silly or too fancy. It is great to see such a strong feminine character depicted in a book aimed at younger audiences. Ella Sarah is an opinionated little girl. She knows what she wants. Her family finds out they don't know how to dress her when her friends arrive for tea dressed in the same manner.
