Aunt Matilda dresses funny and is slightly clumsy. Though she knows she is being looked at and laughed at, Aunt Matilda doesn't mind and keep's smiling. Today Aunt Matilda is in town with her Niece who is 7 years old, and even though Aunt Matilda's clothes shine brighter than the sun with a raggedy old hat and she trips on this and that, Aunt Matilda isn't bothered by the looks and laughter of others - but her niece is.... How does the visit to town go with those laughing and pointing and an embarrassed niece?... Aunt Matilda is perhaps a lesson for all of us.
