Nina Bricko introduces readers to a determined young girl from the 1930s who has a Make-Do-Can-Do attitude. Veleta Mae gets to go to her first day of school, but her dress is thinner than paper, with pockets holier than Swiss cheese. She searches her family's farm for inspiration on what to wear. With a little help from Momma and her pet chicken, Dorothy, Veleta finds the perfect dress in an unexpected way-a flour sack. For a long time, we were a nation of Flour Sack Girls.
