Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for January 19, 2022

Better head for the hills, Wallace. I don’t see a seagull anywhere….

Meanest thing I’ve ever seen Wallace do to Amelia. She must have been really horrible to Spud to have exacted this much revenge.

Wallace, that’s the perfect prank for Amelia!

That is one huge water fountain. More like the ones from my childhood.

Remember what they say about paybacks, Wallace.

Anyone who knows Amelia will know better..

It’d be funnier with ‘kick me’. Hugs are actually enjoyable. I grew up with an Amelia. She was voted Prettiest Girl. In other words, I had NO shot, lol.

Is that an airhorn in Amelia’s locker? What devious prank is she planning for later?

My 8th graders are always hugging on each other. It’s hard to fuss at them, they’re kinda cute. But they are 8th graders, and, well, you know.

Back in my school days, if someone in any way touched your back, it became an automatic reflex to check for a sign of some sort.

I mostly eschew physical contact. I’d rather have someone stick a sign on my back that reads “Kick me” than “hug me” – shudder!

Perfect

If everyone tries to hug Amelia I hate to think of the carnage.

What they don’t show is that Amelia stuck a “Kick Me” sign on Wallace’s back at the same time.

Back at you and l hope you enjoy the rest of the hugs today….

Oh dear, I hope Spud doesn’t see that note. He will come out much the worse for wear.

On behalf of Wallace…“Scoooooooore!”

She’ll think everyone but her went nuts on the same day.
