Описание книги "I Had a Favorite dress", Автор: Bony Ashburn
"I Had A Favorite Dress" is a story about a woman who has a special dress that she loves. The dress goes through many changes over the course of the year, starting as a dress but eventually becoming a shirt, tank top, scarf, and more. The narrator and her mother assist her every step of the way, with the latter using her patient and creative mind to help the narrator find solutions and make the best choice possible. Along the way, the woman realizes that dealing with disasters doesn't always require making mountains out of moles, and decides to make molehills instead.
As the year progresses, the protagonist's favorite dress experiences a variety of transformations, beginning as a dress and ending as a scarf, each journey being accompanied by the helpful and witty mother. The narrator learns that when disasters strike their favorite possessions, they don't have to blow mountains out of mole hills - they instead "make molehills" out of larger things. The title references the fact that the dress does not simply leave the protagonist's life, but is part of a journey through time and transformation. This is complemented by illustrations of the calendar months, serving as a visual representation of the passage of time. Through the story, the reader is invited to reflect on the importance of memory and cherished memories, as well as to appreciate the beauty of lifelong connections and transformational journeys.

Описание книги от Boni Ashburn
As the year passes, the narrator's favorite dress goes through a series of creative changes, from dress to shirt to tank top to scarf and so on, until all that's left of it is a good memory. Assisted by her patient and crafty mama, the narrator finds that when disaster strikes her favorite things, she doesn't need to make mountains out of molehills – she 'makes molehills out of mountains' instead! Structured around the days of the week, the story is also illustrated to show the passing of the seasons, a perfect complement to the themes of growing older and keeping hold (and letting go) of special mementos.
