Little Miss Contrary says the exact opposite of what she means. This can get very confusing unless you know Little Miss Contrary well! She lives in Muddleland, where everything, as you can probably guess is a bit of a muddle. If you ever run into Little Miss Contrary, let's hope she doesn't give you a compliment!
