Clara Button

Le mariage surprise

Clara Button loves drawing, making all kinds of things, and disguising herself. Invited to a very special wedding, Clara and Ollie prepare with the utmost care. Ollie fine-tunes a machine he has invented. And Clara, all dressed up, goes to the haberdasher’s to buy some things. But disaster strikes on the eve of the big day. How will Clara cope? She will need all her usual creativeness and daring to handle the surprising event that awaits her. Packed with amazing twists, this wonderful story cannot fail to delight and enchant.
