Peppy travels to the country of Veselia, where her father, Captain Ephroim Longstocking, is a powerful king. Now she will surely become a Negro princess. Every morning she will smear the face of Wax, so that it becomes the same black and shiny, like all the black buildings. If you want to know how Peppy is spending his time, go with her. And don’t forget: the Jumping ship leaves immediately!
