Bora-Bora Dress - Tapa dura

"Slish - the dress slid off its hanger. Lindsay read the little tag inside: Made in Bora-Bora for you." Fabulous Aunt Fiona is throwing an end-of-the-summer, snazzy, ritzy party, and Lindsay can't wait to go. There is just one problem: she has to wear a dress, and Lindsay never ever wears a dress. But that's before she sees a wonderful sundress shaped like a wedge of pie, with a parrot on the front that seems to wink at her. If Lindsay goes to the party in a dress from a magical island far away, who knows what will happen?
