Flower girls may fawn over The Bridesmaid's Diary by Sarah Gibb, starring Sophie and her angelic bear, Cupid, as they prepare for her aunt's wedding. Pop-ups and pull-tabs animate scenes of Sophie trying on dresses and getting her hair done. Pockets hide various trinkets-a locket, bracelet and confetti, among others-and events unfold in retro yet stylish illustrations in soft pink and pastel hues.
