It takes a special kind of dress to get Lindsay to change her ways in this lyrical tale told with sprightly illustrations. Slish -- the dress slid off its hanger. Lindsay read the little tag inside: "Made in Bora-Bora for you." Fabulous Aunt Fiona is throwing an end-of-the-summer, snazzy, ritzy party, and Lindsay can't wait to go. There's just one hitch: she has to wear a dress, and Lindsay never ever ever wears a dress. She wears her baggy shorts to run on the beach. She wears her patch overalls to jump in piles of leaves. But that's before Lindsay sees a wonderful sundress shaped like a wedge of pie, with a parrot painted on front that seems to wink at her. If Lindsay goes to the party in a dress from a magical island far away, who can predict what will happen?
The Bora Bora Dress is an excellent read for any little girl and her mom, grandma, etc.! Makes for fun pretend play when the story is over, too!
Just wondering

This is a question rather than a review. Since you want to sell books, and this book, The Bora Bora Dress, has a starred review from Booklist, why do you carry this sour review from School Library Journal? Couldn't you at least include the Booklist review to balance the one from SLJ?
