In her dreams, Bailey is a young girl. Every night she dreams about magical dresses. Unfortunately, when Bailey wakes up, nobody wants to hear about her beautiful dreams. This is because Bailey is a boy and shouldn’t be thinking about dresses at all. However, Bailey meets an older girl who is touched and inspired by Bailey’s dreams and courage. Eventually they start making dresses together that represent Bailey’s dreams coming to life.
Hornbook Guide to Children (01/01/2009):
Bailey is obsessed with fabulous frocks, but his mother and father, in turn, remind him that \”boys don’t wear dresses!\” The text refers to the character in the feminine (\”Bailey went to her room\”), which may confound–or call to–the readership at which this well-meaning book is pitched. The cut-paper illustrations are as stylish as Bailey. (Copyright 2009 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston. All rights reserved.)
