Alice: This is the Blisshaven Academy, a preschool, the scene of my daily toil. That's an official crest. It shows a preschooler rampant on a field of green, clutching a crayon in each hand. Beneath is a banner with the school motto, "A Little Learning." Girl: How do you know all this stuff? Alice: My mom read the school brochure to me. And my brother Petey went here. Girl: Petey did? Alice: You can still see the scratches his fingernails made on the sidewalk when he was dragged into school one memorable Monday. Dill: So much for my theory about the giant chicken.
