Waste not, want not! A patterned flour sack becomes a clever creation in this story set in the late 1930's featuring a crafty girl with a gift for repurposing her favorite daisy print.

When the family flour sack is emptied, Nancy Bess remakes it into a dress. But little girls grow as little girls do, and soon that dress is too small. Bit by bit, Nancy Bess fashions the material into new creations, until finally, all that is left of the flour sack are a few tattered pieces. Peering into the family scrap basket, Nancy Bess comes up with a plan to use the material once more, sewing something special to last for generations.

With carefully crafted and richly detailed illustrations, Nancy Bess Had a Dress will appeal to curious young historians and recycling enthusiasts, as well as like-minded teachers, librarians and caregivers.

Evie loves to run, jump, hop and most of all - win! In fact, she had a special place in her room for all her trophies and ribbons. Evie couldn't wait to blaze past her classmates on Field Day. So when things didn't go her way, she stomped, scored and downright pouted! Evie was a sore loser, alright.

When Evie finds herself ahead of the pack and faced with an important decision, will she choose the chance at a trophy or the chance to be a kind friend?

Will she be able to look her past her love of the limelight and stay true to what really matters? Could it be that some things actually feel better than winning?

Join Evie as she navigates the playground and learns about sportsmanship and the challenge of losing.
