A PARTY DRESS

 

Now, read this story "A Party Dress"

 
Once upon a time there lived a very tall fat man in the city of Tiptop. His name was Petupot.

 

Petupot was very happy. "I must wear a new dress", he said to himself. He visited several cloth shops but did not get a dress that fitted him well. He went to a tailor.

Petupot went to a weaver.

The tailor made a nice dress for Petupot with the piece of cloth that he had given him. Now, Petupot wanted a hat to wear and so he went to a basket maker.

 

 

Petupot was disappointed to hear this. So he went to a boatman.

On the day of the party, Petupot reached the mayor's house before time. He was very happy. He was in his new party dress.
