Say No to the Dress Paperback

Say No to the Dress" by Keren David is a sharp-witted and authentic coming-of-age story that tackles the awkward realities of puberty and self-acceptance. Fourteen-year-old Miri, who has recently undergone significant physical changes and struggles with acne, finds her life becoming a nightmare when she's asked to be a bridesmaid not once, but twice. To make matters worse, one wedding involves her school nemesis as a fellow bridesmaid, and the chosen pink satin dress makes Miri feel like a "stuffed sausage." This hilarious and relatable tale navigates themes of family, friendship, body image, and ultimately, the journey of embracing your true self, regardless of what you're forced to wear.
