You Can't Wear That
by Susannah Nilsen is a colorfully illustrated Children's book following the
Baby Prince Christian, born to a royal family of dwarfs. He is half human, so
he is destined to be taller than the average dwarf. The King is particularly
thrilled as he dreams of the young prince growing up to be brave, slaying
dragons and rescuing princesses. But things begin to take an awful turn for the
family as the young prince grows older. He is more inclined to wear his
mother's clothes than he does for his father's. Prince Christian learns to slay
dragons and everyone is rooting for him, but when the King and Queen go missing
and a letter is delivered from the mountain trolls giving him two days to
rescue his parents before they are eaten, Christian sets out on an adventure to
save them, determined to face the dreaded dragon that lives in the cave. While
the trolls laugh at him and his father shows signs of no confidence when he
arrives, Christian has a surprise for the trolls and the dragon at the cave, a
surprise none could have imagined.
This is a beautiful story that is simply told, one that has
many lessons for children. The author writes about identity with intelligence,
passing a message to readers that we are not defined by what we wear but by our
values. While young Christian has his unique personality, it is clear that his
father, the King, wants him to be someone he is not. Christian wants to choose
what to wear, but tradition stands against his personal choices. It is clear
that courage and bravery are qualities that align with how well a person feels
comfortable with himself or herself and this book highlights it brilliantly. Children
will enjoy the colorful illustrations, and the rich world the author has
created, and the character of young Prince Christian. Toddlers will delight in
the adventure that is filled with humor as the young protagonist makes the
trolls and dragons wear the outfit of his choice. You Can't Wear That is a great treat for children, thanks to the
captivating illustrations.
