About This Book
Never out of print since its 1944 publication, this tender story offers readers
of all ages a timeless message of compassion and understanding. At its heart is
Wanda Petronski, an immigrant girl in an American school, who is ridiculed for
wearing the same faded blue dress every day. When she tells her classmates that
she has one hundred dresses at home, she unwittingly triggers a game of teasing
that eventually ends in a lesson for all.
In restoring the reproduction of Louis Slobodkin's artwork, this new edition
recaptures the original vivid color. And to celebrate the book's enhanced
beauty, Helena Estes, the daughter of the author, has written a new letter to
readers about the true story behind The Hundred Dresses.
