If You Give a Katie New Clothes


This morning I cleaned out Katie's dresser and traded out the small stuff for all her bigger clothes. (Mostly hand-me-downs, but only from people with good taste. I mean, for the '90's, at least.) And of course, it inspired me. Here's a story. (Note: the pictures are not all from today. They're just adorable.)

If You Give a Katie New Clothes

By Brittany
Illustrated by Katie

If you give a Katie new clothes, she's going to want to try them all on.


When she tries on her new clothes, she's going to want some shoes to try on with them.


And putting on shoes will remind her of how much she loves playing outside, so she'll need some gear so she won't get sunburned.


After putting on her gear, she'll want to get her dollies ready to go outside, too.


Then the baby carrier will remind her of her favorite bike trailer, and she'll want to go for a bike ride.


Of course, going outside for bikes, she will see the trampoline, and it will remind her how much she loves to bounce.



After all that bouncing, she'll notice that her hands and feet are all messy, and she will demand that she gets a tubby.


 After her tubby, she'll need to get dressed, and will notice the pile of new clothes on the floor.

And of course she'll need to try them all on.



The End.
