Plot[]
Little Miss Stubborn is a very stubborn little person. Once she's decided something, nothing can change her mind! If she's decreed it's cold, she goes out wearing a hat, scarf, and gloves under the blazing sun. She's so stubborn that she's ready to do anything to be right. The other day, she decided to eat cherries. Miss Brainy tells her it isn't Cherry season, and she'll never find any. Well! She traveled for three days to find a country where it was cherry season! Today, she arrives at the station and, very determined, boards a train. As she sits quietly waiting for the train to depart, Mr. Muddle arrives. He says hello to her, and she, like him are going to the mountains, meaning he is very happy to travel with her, but she isn't, protesting she isn't going in the mountains, and wants to go to the sea to have a swim. Mr. Muddle thought the train was going to the mountains, But it is not at all. The train is going to the sea, that's all! Sometime later, halfway through the journey, Miss Stubborn asks the conductor: "What time will we get to the sea?" The controller replies to her the train is not going to the sea as it's in the mountains! Then Miss Stubborn persists: "He's going to the sea, I said. To take a bath. No, but!" With such a stubborn person, the Controller does not insist. After a long journey, the train stops at the foot of the mountain, and the stationmaster shouts to the station staff. On his microphone: "Terminal, everyone get off!" Miss Stubborn persists and says, "I can't get off. This train goes to the sea, I'm going to take a bath," and stays alone in the carriage. She is very stubborn, so this fuss will go on for hours. And you're wondering what will happen. Well, you're right. Late at night, the train cleaner arrives... Spluff! Miss Stubborn has a big bucket of water poured over her head and she screams, "Ah! I was right after all. This train takes a bath!" She always has to be right.
