By tomatomom on September 12, 2012 Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase This was my favorite book when I was a child, and I have missed it ever since my mom got rid of it in one of her "clean sweep" fits! Written in rhyme, it is a story about a charming lady and her favorite store. The illustrations are by Hilary Knight, who also illustrated the Eloise books.
