This is Emily Rodda’s first book. Something Special, and it was published in 1984. It marked the beginning of a career that has seen her become one of the most successful, prolific and versatile writers in Australia. She has written or co-authored well over fifty books for children, and as Jennifer Rowe (her real name) she writes popular mystery novels for adults. This book won the Children's Book Council of Australia Junior Book of the Year. Sam, the central character, is helping her mother sort out used-clothing ready for the school fair. She keeps having strange dreams about some some of the more special clothes.
