She wants to order a fairy princess costume out of the catalogue for Halloween but there is a drought and therefore not much cotton and no money for a costume. So, her mother, as only a mother would do, makes her a costume out of a brown towel with cotton bolls glued to it and a USDA sack for her candyThe story highlights the struggle of an elementary-aged girl dressed up as the only cotton bale among catalogue princesses and pirates and a teacher who recognizes her struggle and makes her feel special resulting in the little girl deciding it's not so bad being unique, even if she is a cotton bale.
