This book is about
The boy didn't want to wear his trousers to his sister's wedding as they were too long. In the night he, his brother and his sister all shorten the trousers and they end up too short.

My favourite part of the book is
When his brother was saying his knees were horrible so that he didn't have to wear his shorts! He got to wear his own trousers in the end.

I would also like to say
I would not to wear red velvet trousers that are too long either.
