In Step
Dear Miss Perfect,
Yesterday afternoon I went to our school "Hot
100" Dance in the multipurpose room. I asked lots of girls to dance, but no one would be my partner.
Miss Perfect, I know all the dances.
I can rumba. I can samba. I can cha-cha-cha.
What should I do?
Tired of dancing alone,

P.S. I keep my quills flat at all times.
Dear Mr. Porcupine,
You need a partner with thick skin.
I recommend a Rhinoceros. Even though they are
large, they are light on their feet. What a handsome
pair you would make, Mr. Porcupine!
And if you can't find a Rhinoceros, what about
a Hippo, an Elephant, or a Crocodile? Miss Perfect
believes you've simply been asking the wrong girls.

Search among the Wallflowers,
Miss Perfect
