Molly Pig in the Big City
Dear Cowabelle, I’m having such a tough time in the Big City – you’re the most sophisticated friend I’ve got, so I figured you could maybe give me some pointers about how I should act here. And trust me, I need pointers. LOTS of pointers. I’m NOT good at city living. I think the problem is that the city is so…big. I keep getting confused about where we are (and maybe I’ve complained about that a few times to Polly) But today? Today was the worst. I actually got totally lost. I was out to lunch with Polly and her family, and I had to go to the bathroom. The restaurant was HUGE, but I managed to find it. When I tried to find our table again, though – I couldn’t. I had NO idea where Polly’s family was sitting! I tried to flag down a waiter, but they were so busy delivering food, they didn’t notice me. I started wandering around and around the restaurant, and somehow I ended up out on the patio. Outside! I knew we weren’t sitting out there, but when I tried to get back … Read more
Cowabelle’s Sleepover
It’s Cowabelle. Roberta and I had the most awesome time at our sleepover. We painted our toenails green for spring and my mom let us borrow some of her old makeup to give each other makeovers. We made homemade pizza for dinner, and then we baked an apple pie. Which was totally fun (and delicious) but when my mom came into the kitchen and saw all the clouds of flour everywhere I thought she was going to freak. Luckily she just gave me one of her looks (why are teachers so good at those looks?) and I knew that Roberta and I would have to clean up before we watched our movie. When the kitchen was clean and our pie was done, we watched a movie marathon, snuggled up on the floor in our sleeping bags eating pie! How fun is that? When it was time to go to sleep, we could not stop giggling about how happy Sparky was about finding that 20 KinzCash last week. He really thinks that lucky stone is working! But later on, when we were lying there in the dark in our sleeping bags, Roberta said she felt … Read more
Sparky Strikes it Rich
It’s Roberta. How long do you think we need to keep up this lucky stone charade for Sparky anyway? Today he could not believe his luck because on the way to the ‘Kinz meeting, he found 20 KinzCash lying on the sidewalk. I know what you’re probably thinking. You’re thinking that the lucky stone actually works. Well, you’re wrong. We just want Sparky to think that it works so you know what we did? We all chipped in some KinzCash and we planted it there for him to find. Salley and Stoogles waited behind a hedge until they saw him coming and then they secretly placed it in his path so he would find it. So now Sparky is 20 KinzCash richer and the rest of us are kind of broke. When he got to the meeting he was so happy, which was great and all, but he said the rest of us should cheer up because we seemed kind of grumpy. Then he complained because no one had stopped at the W Shop to pick up snacks for the meeting. That’s because we didn’t have any KinzCash left! We had given … Read more
Molly: Not So Sure About the Big City
To: Ms. Pig From: Molly Subject: Life in the Big City Hi Mom! How are things in Kinzville? Things are okay in the Big City. I mean, I guess it’s not really what I was expecting. It’s pretty crowded and noisy here. I find it kind of scary when we’re walking down the street and there is just a crush of shoppers rushing around. At one point I thought I got separated from Polly and her family and I really started to panic, being caught alone in a mob of strangers. But then Polly’s dad appeared and he said that he saw where I was the whole time so you don’t need to worry about me. We went out for dinner to this really fancy restaurant last night and there were all these unusual items on the menu. I didn’t know what to order so I chose something with a weird sounding name and just between you and me when it came I thought it was pretty gross. But I couldn’t say anything because Polly and her family and Kimmy were all raving about the food like it was the best ever. I guess … Read more
Pink Hippo Contest Winners
Congratulations to Hannah, Morgan, Cambria, V and Anni! They’ve each been sent a Secret Code for an eStore exclusive Pink Hippo. We wanted to know how the Pink Hippo turned pink — check out the winning entries below! One day Evangeline the grey hippo was out with a friend exploring Adventure Park in a faraway land called Kinzville. Her friend, Polly, said that they should turn back but Evangeline carried on. They went deeper and deeper until Polly had enough and ran out of the park. Evangeline was a very brave hippo so she didn’t run like her friend. She longed for adventure, but as it got darker and darker finally she decided to turn back. As she was walking out, Goober was doing a chemistry experiment involving a red and blue formula. Evangeline didn’t notice him and accidentally bumped him, causing the formula to mix into pink, and then she fell into the big puddle! Poor Evangeline was now pink but Goober promised to help get rid of the color eventually. Later that day Evangeline’s parents were curious and mad at her for wandering off. Evangeline got teased a lot for her color, but at the end her color … Read more
Spring Break!
Ella McWoof here, happy to have a break from school! Today, I’m going to be finding out what everyone is up to for spring break. Sparky – I’m going to be taking advantage of all this good luck I’ve been having! Maybe I’ll go searching for treasure with my uncle. We’ll probably find something amazing, as long as I have my lucky rock! Molly – I’m going with my friend Polly to the Big City. I’m all packed and ready to go…it’s just…I’m a LITTLE nervous. Not super-nervous, of course. I mean, I’ll be fine! This is going to be fun! Right? Salley – I’m going to visit my dad for a couple of days, but then I’ll be back. Stoogles and I are planning on having a movie-watching afternoon. It’ll be awesome! Stoogles – I’m planning on sleeping in, staying up late, not doing any homework and having an all-around great time. Salley and I have a movie afternoon planned and my mom said something about visiting my cousins. Other than that, no plans! Roberta – I’m going to be baby-sitting Millie for a … Read more

Plumpy Shops for Wedding Dresses
Dear Diary, I am so excited about planning my wedding to Charles. I started shopping for dresses today. It is so hard to choose – there are so many beautiful dresses out there. I also need to choose the dress that Nibbles is going to wear and I really wanted her opinion on the wedding dresses, so I invited her to come with me. I don’t know if Nibbles wasn’t feeling well or what, but she really didn’t seem to be in the mood for shopping today. Every dress that I tried on, she just said “It’s okay.” or “It’s fine.” But I don’t want to look ‘okay’ or ‘fine’ on my big day! I want to find a dress that is really special. I was starting to feel a bit discouraged. I decided that what would perk her up would be shopping for HER dress. I mean, Nibbles usually loves to go shopping with me. It’s one of our favorite things to do together. We shop ‘til we drop, then we find some place to have a coffee and sit and chat and laugh for the rest of the afternoon. But even when … Read more

Spring Break Surprise
Dear Students, Since it’s the last day before our spring break, and I know it can be rather…difficult…to focus on one’s studies, I am pleased to announce a surprise! This afternoon, we will be having a fun fair in the gym and cafeteria! Each student will get to choose four stations to visit. You may choose to learn about fashion, music, games, cooking, arts and crafts, automobile repair, magic, or television production! We’ve got some expert teachers visiting us, including Persephone, Chef Gazpacho, and the always delightful Fred Rover. Here you can learn about automotive repair, arts and crafts, games and cooking! And here’s the place to learn about music, magic, fashion and TV production! This is a wonderful way to broaden your horizons, and maybe even learn something about a topic you’re unfamiliar with. The gym and cafeteria have been completely made over – I doubt you’ll recognize them! I do hope you have a wonderful time and a very safe and happy spring break.
