For the picky pre-teen, this is a great purchase! Fits true to measurements (not necessarily age-size) so read those closely (bought a 14 for a tall 11 year old and fits great!), and the yellow color is nice and bright (safest in water for summer!) but also “cool” enough to wear. Sun and stars for the win!
