[You Have to Draw the Line Somewhere] is the story of a young Canadian girl who aspires to become a Vogue fashion artist. The British Columbia setting is refreshing, and the style humorous. Although the emphasis is on the heroine's pursuit of her career, there is enough of family life and boy-dates-girl to interest a wide variety of readers. It is a frank picture of the non-glamorous side of fashion art and modeling and the amount of work necessary to become first-rate in either profession. With a light touch the story offers depth and mature values…. This has much more to offer than most girls' fiction. (p. 72)
