How was Halibut to know that it was a garden party? Everybody notices him, and everybody wants a beautiful suit like his! The Queen and King commission him to make them each a special suit, and Halibut opens a tailor’s shop and makes clothes for everybody. He sets about making himself a special silver and gold, jewel-encrusted suit for the party, in the hope that he will not be noticed by the other guests. But he is worried he will be noticed if he attends the party. Halibut longs to go and visit the spectacular gold and silver palace which is covered in jewels. One day, he receives a beautifully ornate letter from the Queen inviting him to her grand birthday party. So shy that he makes himself many different camouflaged outfits to help him blend into the background and walk around unnoticed (but mostly he likes to stay at home).
