Harper, Charise Mericle. 2005. FASHION KITTY. New York: Hyperion Paperbacks for Children. ISBN # 0786851341
Kiki Kitty comes from a family who encourages her to be independent and individualistic. On her birthday a pile of fashion magazines accidentally falls on her head transforming her from regular Kiki Kitty to Fashion Kitty. Fashion Kitty uses her super powers to help others with their fashion problems and, in the process, builds their self esteem and social skills. Fashion Kitty is a fun character which will help children consider relevant issues such as fitting in and bullying. The illustrations are cartoon style. They are done in grays and pinks and include dialogue and expression. The illustrations and large and the text is minimal. There is even a section where the reader can manipulate the pages to create their own fashion combinations. This selection is a fun choice with substance.
