Ella interview 1: Ms. Cowoline
Ella McWoof: All the pupils at Kinzville Academy just love their principal, Ms. Cowoline. I’m here with Ms. Cowoline to learn more about her love of education, her role in the Kinzville community and her home life with her charming daughter, Cowabelle. Ms. Cowoline: Why, thank you, Ella! When you put it like that you make me sound so grand! I’m just a simple teacher in a small town. Ella: No, Ms. Cowoline, you are certainly more than that! You are the heart of one of the most beloved institutions in Kinzville. Can you tell us how you got your start teaching? Ms. Cowoline: Well, Ella, I came from a very large family, and being the oldest child I just seemed to gravitate naturally toward instructing my younger siblings. Whether it was teaching them to tie their shoes, ride a bike or make a sandwich, I truly enjoyed guidance and felt such a feeling of accomplishment when I saw them grasp a new concept. Ella McWoof: Is there any aspect of teaching you DON’T enjoy? Ms. Cowoline: To be honest – and I’m sure the children will disagree with me on this one – my least favorite part of teaching … Read more

We’ve met so many nice Zums, and they’re all very happy to show us around. I’ve been practicing my photography skills and trying to get a few good pictures of the Zums, but it’s not as easy as it looks – those little guys are fast! I hope you’re having a great summer in Kinzville! I’ll write again soon! Love, Plumpy

Play SPREE!
Have you ever played SPREE! before? If you have, you know how much fun it is to take a trip to the Kinzville Mall! If you’re not familiar with SPREE!, here’s what you need to know: when you play SPREE!, you roll up to three dice (you get two free per day) to see where you land. You might get a shopping bag (get all five and you’ll get a bag of cool prizes), some KinzCash, some Mall Credits, a chance to win an extra roll or a chance to take a card from the pile and see what you get.

Nibbles’ Real Friends
Hey. I’ve kind of been keeping a low profile since I realized that Molly was right about Purr-Cilla using me for my pool. I mean, I just felt so stupid and I didn’t want Molly to say ‘I told you so’. My mom keeps asking what’s wrong because I told her just to tell my friends I’m not home. It’s just that I don’t want to invite Purr-Cilla and her friends in when they show up (which they do regularly, hoping to go for a swim) and I’m too embarrassed to see my other friends. But today my mom said enough was enough and that Molly had called on me several times and I was going to call her back. I took a deep breath and called her and you know what? She was awesome. She didn’t even mention Purr-Cilla. She just wanted to fill me in on her latest babysitting assignment. Apparently it went a lot better than the last time when Millie ran away. Finally I couldn’t stand it any more and told her how I overheard Purr-Cilla talking about me to her friends. She was so nice about it. She didn’t say ‘I told you so’ at … Read more

Stoogles Summer – Not So Bad
Wow! Turns out having a broken flipper isn’t that bad after all! After a couple of weeks stuck at home with my grandpa, my family surprised me with the coolest thing ever – they rigged up this wagon so I can travel around with them! It’s been great. We went to the Amusement Park yesterday and I even got to ride on some of the rides! My dad lifted me from the wagon into the roller coaster cart! It was awesome! You know the weirdest thing though? When my family showed up with the wagon, the first thing my grandpa said was “Well, thank goodness for that! Nothing personal, Stoogles, but I was getting kind of bored, being cooped up here with you all the time. I can’t wait to get to that Amusement Park and try the Super Deluxe Rollercoaster!” Seriously???
