Dear Diary,
Do you believe in bad luck? I don’t think I do – but my friend Sparky does. He says he’s been having the worst luck ever. He broke his skateboard, skinned his paws, lost his handheld game, and flunked a test.
OK, so that sounds pretty bad.
But is it because of bad luck? I don’t know. His skateboard needed fixing and he kept putting it off. He’s always misplacing things…and he didn’t study for the test, so what did he think would happen?
Anyway, he was really bummed at today’s ‘Kinz meeting…so much so that after he left, my friends and I discussed a way to make him feel better. Now, it does involve a little bit of trickery…but sometimes that’s OK, right?
Stoogles decided that he’d tell Sparky that he’s giving him a lucky rock. The rock isn’t lucky at all, of course. It’s just a nice, shiny gray rock that Stoogles found one day. But as Roberta said, “if Sparky BELIEVES it’s lucky, maybe he’ll start to FEEL luckier…and less sad.”
And she’s got a good point.
So we’re going to give him the rock…and maybe set up a few ‘lucky’ things so Sparky’s mood improves.
It can’t hurt, right?

It sounds logical, and it might work, not to mention a very nice thing to do.
Oreo da Panda is #1!!!!!
What a thoughtful friend you are..
Well its a good idea. i mean if he thinks its lucky he thinks it lucky. its worth a shot
oh very sad
Sparky needs to start paying attention and doing the things that need doing. Luck has nothing to do with it. He’s really getting lazy and until he changes things won’t get any better.
Let us hope he feels better having the rock – even if it is not magic, he will know his friends care for him! All the best! MDIChickadee
Ok then.
Ah, the placebo effect. It could work. You guys never know.

That’s really nice of Salley and the rest of the kinz. I have had bad days before but not a whole bad week! And no matter what happens friends always make things better! : )

Good idea, but it’ll probably backfire…
