Illustrated by Caroline Castle
An exploration of some of 'practically three' Elizabeth Jane's wardrobe through the week as she struggles with the difficulties of dressing herself. The story is told by mum with a sometimes uneasy rhyming text which might trip up adult readers-aloud. Listeners of three to five will find the pictures highly diverting, particularly if they are allowed to explore the book themselves and chuckle over the mistakes and tangles and the way Elizabeth Jane's teddy, whose wardrobe is identical, mimics her every move.
