    the angry eyes are accentuated by the crayon circles she still has not washed off me thinks

    Not a word about Petey’s missing unicorn, but Viola’s backpack is still decked out to the max. LOVE the angry eyes and the little fists of rage. Wonder if Viola will still want to wear Alice on her shoulder after all…

    Black crayons definately accentuate Alice’s forebodingness.

    Could Mr. Thompson have been making a reference to “John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt?” The line is usually sung as “His name is my name too” but in my guitar books with children’s music, I’ve also seen it as “That’s my name too.”

    That might not be the reference - even if she’s four, Alice is likely old enough to be annoyed that Viola mangled her name - but I have to wonder if it’s indeed a song reference. :)

    At least we now have independent evidence that Viola is real. Now we just have Ernesto to wonder about!
