"An irresistible celebration of diversity, creativity and being yourself."
Two sets of dreams come true in this gorgeous reworking of the Cinderella story.
Fred - the first every fairy Fred we’re told - loves his job in the Department of Dresses, where the fairies busily respond to wishes from princesses for ball gowns. He hopes that one day a wish-mail will land in his tray.
Meanwhile, a little boy named Joshua very much wants to go to his friend Claire’s party, but its theme is Princess, and he doesn’t have a dress. Can Fred help? Of course he can!
The dress Fred makes for Josh, with spangles and sparkles, feathers and frills, not only wins Josh a prize at the party but sees Fred crowned Top Designer too.
This story is bursting with joy, and sparkling and frothy as the special dress. From the creators of Out of the Blue, it’s another irresistible celebration of diversity, perseverance and being yourself.
