​
Then one day, as she is having a rest in a coin laundry, she finds the most peculiar, utterly fascinating object. Epiphany! Princess Polly is inspired. There will be a competition. And the prize? Guess!
Freddie's Privates
​by Joanna Volinska and Alison Williams

Larissa spends an afternoon at Freddie's. She is intrigued by what he shows her and wants to chat about it with her dad. But he overreacts.
