Alice Rhea Mitchell has written a book that is sure to please little girls, moms, aunts, and grandmothers. My Mama’s Closet tells the story of a girl of four exploring her mother’s closet, discovering dress-up clothes, and emerging dressed as “Mama.”

The rhyming poem and lovely watercolor illustrations are sure to keep little ones’ attention until the end, and then, inspire imaginative dress-up play. Grown-up “girls,” too, may recall their own happy memories of dressing up and clumping around in oversized high heels. My Mama’s Closet makes a wonderful gift to welcome a new baby girl or a special addition to any little girl’s collection of books.
