Description
Mam'zelle Canette looks great in her silver dress decorated with purple and pink arabesques. She's an eye-catcher in the grocery store and the queen of the party in the middle of the table. However, once empty, she is a little worried. She knows what to expect. Sure, a little discomfort, but it won't last long. Soon she will find another piece of clothing. After all, it's not so bad, being a can of a hundred dresses!
