The sixth chapter in 'First Flight' textbook is 'The Hundred Dresses - II' written by Eleanor Estes. 
This story discloses why Wanda Petronski was absent from school and how Peggy and Maddie were apologetic for their rude behaviour towards her.
This chapter gives a lesson to the students that they should not discriminate against anyone on the basis of their appearance, caste or ethnicity. Being narrow-minded has an adverse effect on people and impacts relationships in a society to a great extent.
The lesson begins with a letter sent by Wanda’s father to her school. In the letter, he informs the school authorities about their decision of re-settling to a big city. He also mentions that nobody would tease Wanda for her unique name or appearance in the new city. After reading the letter, the teacher, Miss Mason was shocked when she realised that Wanda was teased with derogatory comments by her classmates.
