A charming, whimsical tale originally published in the author's award-winning collection, The Little Bookroom. It tells of apprentice dressmaker, Lotta, to whom falls the task of making three beautiful dresses for three fancy-dress balls when the King visits his aunt to choose a bride. Things are not all quite as they seem, though, but in the very best fairy tale tradition, all ends happily ever after.
