Tickle Me Pink

By: Evelyn Carroll, 10

Tickle Me Pink is very allergic to tickles. Whenever someone tickles her, she turns pink, which is where her name comes from. A lot of kids in Tickle Me Pink’s class tease her because of her name, but the worst person to be teased by is Screamin’ Green. It is hard to be teased by Screamin’ Green because he always screams so that everyone can hear the mean things he is saying and Tickle Me Pink gets humiliated. The strange thing is that no teachers ever seem to hear Screamin’ Green scream.

One day, after being tickled until she turned radical red, Tickle Me Pink decided that she needed to do something about this. She walked up to the nicest person she knew. This was Sunglow. Sunglow was nice to the meanest of people and loved to help.

“Sunglow,” said Tickle Me Pink, “what do you do when you’re bullied?” “You tell an adult,” Sunglow responded. The next day at school, before Screamin’ Green and his friend Laser Lemon could approach her, Tickle Me Pink walked to her teacher Mrs. Mahogany.

Magic Mint is six years old and was born on Easter. She has two twin brothers who are both twelve years old and a dog. Her brothers' names are Gray and Timberwolf. Her dog’s name is Fuzzy Wuzzy. If Magic Mint could do anything in the world, she would travel to Hawaii. Her favorite season is spring because that is when the flowers grow. Magic Mint’s closest friends are Razzle Dazzle Rose, Purple Pizzazz, and Tickle Me Pink. She sounds like the ocean waves crashing on beach and smells like the salt in oceans. Magic Mint is very brave, but deathly afraid of rats. She keeps her secrets in a waterproof, fireproof, bulletproof, brotherproof locked box that she buried in the backyard.
