"Seven at One Swat" reads the sash of the timid tailor, so it is not surprising that the royal family and frightened townspeople turn to him when they are threatened by three fierce giants.  The kingdom does not realize, however, that the tailor is only bragging about his prowess.  Aware, though, that the country's fair princess is in danger, the tailor is determined to face his foes by using his wits.  His trickery works and, in a series of hilarious slapstick encounters, the giants defeat themselves.  The "Brave Little Tailor" becomes the country's hero, winning over the princess, the kingdom, and your audience, as well.
