Princesses Don't Wear That!

Princess Nora loves to wear beautiful dresses and dislikes wearing anything else, no matter the weather! Through autumn, winter, spring, and summer, Nora's mom shows her that princesses have more fun when they wear the right clothes for the right occasion. Of course, princess dresses have their occasion too, and Nora discovers the perfect time and place to wear her favourite outfit!

Perfect for children who love to dress up, Princesses Don't Wear THAT! guides readers through the four seasons and demonstrates appropriate clothing for each, while still encouraging imagination and play.

About the Author:

Cat White holds a master's degree in Outdoor Environmental and Sustainability Education. While teaching young children in an outdoor setting early in her career, she experienced the ways in which appropriate attire benefits imagination and play.

Her first picture book, Princesses Don't Wear THAT! was inspired by her own daughter's love of dresses and the challenge of getting her to wear anything else. Cat lives in Calgary, Alberta, with her husband, Jon, and two young daughters. Her girls are free to embrace the glamour of princess play, and encouraged to get dirty in the mud!

About the Illustrator:

DeWitt Studios was established by Robin and Patricia: identical twin illustrators. After graduating from Maryland Institute College of Art they began their careers in the Baltimore area and quickly discovered that they were confusing art directors all over town. In 1983 they combined their portfolios when an opportunity to do a children's book for Stemmer House publishers became available. They have been working together since then and have worked for many publishers including Time-Life, Charlebridge, Stemmer House, FriesenPress and Lawley Publishing. In 1998 Robin returned to Maryland Institute to obtain her masters in digital imaging. Both Robin and Patricia have taught classes in Michigan in book illustration and character design. Robin enjoys gardening; Pat enjoys cooking; and they both love their spotted herd of Dalmatian dogs.
