Destined to become a beloved classic, "The I" is a whimsical and enchanting tale for modern children who seek more than just sequins and sparkles on their dresses. Written by the rising star Lily Murray and illustrated by the Waterstones Prize-winning illustrator Jenny Lovlie, this delightful story takes readers on a dress shopping adventure with Lucy and her Aunt Augusta.
As they venture into the Fabulous Fashion Store, a paradise of dresses for every taste and occasion, Lucy's eyes are immediately drawn to the array of fancy, frilly, striped, silly, sun, fun, blue, green, and countless other dresses. However, it is the presence of pockets that captures her heart, for she desires a dress that not only exudes elegance but also provides a practical storage solution for her cherished belongings. As she navigates through the titchy, witchy, extremely itchy, and delicate dresses, Lucy begins to worry about where she will place her leaves, nettles, delicate petals, magical spells, and beautiful shells. The hunt is on: will Lucy find the dress of her dreams?

By highlighting the importance of pockets, the story sends a powerful message that girls and boys alike should be allowed to express themselves through their clothing choices, and to have the freedom to carry their belongings with pride.
With its charming illustrations, witty dialogue, and relatable characters, "The I" is a must-read for children and adults alike. It reminds us of the power of imagination, the importance of individuality, and the joy of embracing our true selves. Whether you are a fan of dresses, pockets, or just looking for a heartwarming story that will leave a lasting impression, this book is sure to delight and inspire.
