But this year their favorite shop has been taken over by Monsieur Pip’s fancy boutique! Soon they’re on a wild ride through the world of high fashion, in crazy patterns and every color of the rainbow. Will the conservative Kettles ever find the clothes they need? Mais oui! For Monsieur Pip’s customers are always happy - G-U-A-R-A-N-T-E-E-D!
