Is there really such a thing as too much bling? Find out in this sparkly homage to imagination and creativity gone wild that’s perfect for even the youngest fashion and crafting enthusiasts!
Has the rainy day got you down?
Not feeling fancy in your gown?
Just add glitter!
It all starts with a mysterious mail delivery, a little girl with a big imagination, and a sprinkling of twinkling glitter. Before long there’s glitter here, glitter there—glitter, glitter EVERYWHERE! But just when she’s about to add more glitter, the little girl realizes maybe there is such a thing as too much bling when you and your best pal start to get lost in it…
From beloved author Angela DiTerlizzi and illustrator Samantha Cotterill comes a silly and sweet story that celebrates imagination, creativity, and knowing when enough is enough—or is it?!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
When life hands you lemons, make lemonade but when life's got you "bored, ignored or feeling down," writes DiTerlizzi (I Wanna Be a Cowgirl), "just add glitter." Indeed, a girl's rainy day turns around when a box containing several bottles of colored glitter arrives on her doorstep. What starts as a series of modest embellishments (the girl covers her paper crown in green sparkles) soon becomes a way of life: "Have you made your whole world gleam?/ Do you love this glistening dream?/ Then grab a ton, have fun, and scream,/ Add more glitter!' " Cotterill (Charlotte and the Rock) embeds actual glitter into her hand-drawn and cut-paper pictures, and the dazzle of it all, combined with the exuberance of the protagonist and her cat sidekick, will sweep many readers up into joyful glittermania. Rest assured, though, that the final spreads show the girl diligently sweeping up mounds of glitter, while the cat tries to scratch the stuff out of its fur (good luck with that). A final image teases that there may be more crafty fun to come. Anyone for googly eyes? Ages 4 8.
