Missy has big plans for class picture day. She will wear wonderful clothes. "Missy could not wait until Friday. Friday was picture day at school. And Missy was going to dress up Super Duper Royal Deluxe. She was going to razzle and dazzle! She was going to shimmer and shine!"
Missy is really called Melisa Abigail Rose but everyone calls her Missy. She has a cat called Pink and everyone calls him "Pink." On school picture day Missy tries twelve different crazy outfits until she finally settles on the perfect combination which includes all her favourite things - sparkly bag, plaid skirt, dynamite boots and her super duper fuzzy hat. Missy's mother takes one look at her daughter and their battle begins. Mum has organised a far more conservative and sensible Picture Day outfit. Mum wins the battle and a very angry Missy heads off to school. In class Missy sits beside Oscar. Missy is so busy feeling furious and comparing her plain clothes with the sparkles of her class mates she does not really look at Oscar. He is wearing a plaid vest and a huge green bow tie. As the two of them wait for their turn Oscar explains his brilliant plan to Missy. The ending will make you smile.
