THE HUNDRED DRESSES II- SUMMARY

The lesson begins with all the students of Room no. 13 having a look at
the wonderful drawings of Wanda Petronski. Only then, a note is

received by Miss Mason from Wanda’s father informing that none of his

two children will attend the school as they are moving to a big city where

no one would judge them for their names. Miss Mason was left shocked

and conveyed her disappointment to the class. Maddie was affected by

this letter of Wanda’s father. She instantly developed an urge to
apologise to Wanda. Peggy and Maddie, the two best friends rush to

Boggins Heights hoping that the family hadn’t moved yet. But to their

dismay, there was no sign of life in and around the house. Maddie lost

her sleep thinking what a coward she is who couldn’t stand against the

wrong. That day she decided that she’ll never let anyone tease someone

like that again. That weekend Peggy and Maddie decided to write a
letter to Wanda that was originally meant to be apologetic but they

ended up writing a friendly note asking her how did she like the new

place. Weeks passed by and there was no reply until one day near

Christmas, Miss Mason announces that she heard from Wanda. In that

letter, Wanda wrote she misses everyone and conveyed her intention of

gifting one dress each to Maddie and Peggy because she has a whole

new lot of hundred dresses lined up in her new house. Both of them
were happy to receive it and later realised that it was their faces she had

drawn along with the dresses. Thus, they both concluded that Wanda

did like them.
