Title: "Colorful, Creative, and Captivating!"
Product review: Cleage's return to Idlewild, Michigan produces a beautiful treat for readers. As somewhat of a sequel to What Looks Like Crazy on an Ordinary Day, I Wish I had a Red Dress gives a closer view into the life of Joyce Mitchell, a widow and community leader with a passion for speaking up for those who seem to have no voice.The Sewing Circus, a girls' group founded by Joyce, is in danger of losing its government funding while many local youngsters seem to be losing their minds. With what seems to be the weight of the world on her shoulders and the longing to have those shoulders caressed, Joyce allows her faith to waver.If you are ever in Idlewild and see a hodgepodge of young women with their children in a frenzy, Joyce is certainly not far. And if you see a tall, dark, and handsome Black male near, then that might just be . . . You'll have to read the book to get that one.
