An unforgettable story about understanding, compassion, and generosity by Newbery Award-winning author Eleanor Estes... Wanda wears the same old, faded dress every day when she goes to school, but at home, she says she has a hundred beautiful dresses, all neatly lined up. The other girls didn't believe her, and when Peggy turned this into a daily game of teasing Wanda, everyone joined in. Although Peggy's best friend, Maddy, was deeply disturbed by this, she couldn't find the courage to speak up. One day, when Wanda didn't come to school, the classmates learned the truth about the hundred dresses. The lesson they learned about kindness and generosity stayed with them for the rest of their lives.
