Reseña del libro "Only the Best: The Exceptional Life and Fashion of ann Lowe (en Inglés)"

An inspiring picture book biography about the amazing Ann Lowe--the first nationally-known African American fashion designer. A careful snip, a delicate fold. Fabric the color of new petals. Skirts that flare like upside-down blossoms. A garden bursts into bloom! There is no "good enough." For Ann, only the best will do. Award-winning author Kate Messner, costume historian Margaret E. Powell, and fashion designer and illustrator Erin Robinson tell the powerful story of the ground-breaking Ann Lowe, who grew up in a small Alabama dress shop and became the first nationally-known African American fashion designer. Sought after by millionaires and movie stars, her designs walked the red carpet and graced the wedding of Senator John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Bouvier. At a time when the world around her thought African Americans deserved no more than second-class treatment, Ann expected no less than very best for herself. THE FIRST, FAMED BLACK FASHION DESIGNER: Although she faced many hardships, Ann's spirit, talent, and belief in herself always shone through. This story provides an empowering, real-life role model for young girls--and especially Black girls--to relate to and see themselves in, at an age when building self-confidence is more important than ever. ENCOURAGES CREATIVITY AND PERSERVERENCE: Full of interesting details about how Ann came up with her designs, and how she always forged ahead in spite of setbacks, this true story will captivate aspiring artists and young creative thinkers alike. SURE OF HER OWN WORTH: This book makes a perfect gift for anyone looking to celebrate, empower, and inspire the women in their lives--whether daughters, granddaughters, nieces, cousins, or friends. Ann Lowe is a testament to the power of knowing we're both capable of and deserve ONLY THE BEST! BEAUTIFUL, IMMERSIVE PROSE: Wonderful, vivacious writing by award-winning author Kate Messner and expert historian Margaret E. Powell brings Ann's pride in herself and her work to life in rich detail. Perfect for: Parents, grandparents, and caregiversTeachers and librariansReaders who loved Little Leaders and Parker Looks UpAnyone seeking books about Black excellence, female empowerment, or Black history
