Review
This is a wonderful book. One of a child's first independent decisions is what they are going to wear. Where Did My Clothes Come From answers any questions a child may have about the clothing they wear. It takes common types of clothing such as: jeans, a party dress, a sports uniform, a fleece jacket, rain boots, and other items, and explores the process to make each item. This book has informative colorful illustrations that complement the text. The last pages include recycling suggestions for clothes a child has grown out of or doesn't want anymore. This book will appeal to the nonfiction reader or anyone with an interest in clothing.
Overall Book Score: excellent
