How Cheetahs Got Their Spots

There were two African girls, Dani and Jaimie, and a lion. One day, Dani found a lion and wanted to try to trick Jaimie into thinking that she had found a cheetah. Dani took the lion, and she shaved the fur from around his neck and coloured the lion yellow and put solid black spots all around his muscular body. When Dani was done, she called Jaimie over from washing dishes to tell her that she had found a cheetah.
“Dani, I don’t think that’s a cheetah,” answered Jaimie. “I think that’s a lion, not a cheetah!” exclaimed Jaimie.
“No, it’s a cheetah!” yelled Dani.
“Then what is it, Dani?” asked Jaimie.
“Umm, it’s a . . . oh fine, you got me. It’s a lion, not a cheetah!” cried Dani. “I thought that since you are always

    Hedgehogs are by far, one of the ugliest sorts of creatures we take home as pets. Much like a rat, yet covered with long hair that makes them look spiked, hedgehogs are a bit more friendly and absolutely fat, often getting stuck on their large backs, flailing their short, stubby legs in every direction. It is no question that these animals are not attractive to look at. On the other hand, when seeing them play, popping their head out of your favorite coffee mug, or cuddled up in the tiniest of blankets, or wearing the holiday hats you dress them in without protest, they seem not very ugly at all, actually quite adorable and cute. Not only in hedgehogs, but in every aspect of life, there is something both beautiful and ugly to be found.…

    She was simply asleep. After finding a pillow for her head, I left her to enjoy it. (37) MY SATURDAY MORNINGS WERE RESERVED for Christina Heal: a devoutly religious woman who might have been older than Jesus Christ himself with a pear shaped body and hazel eyes that once twinkled upon hearing my stories. It was a particularly warm day for fall in New York; so I decided to stroll down to Ms. Heal’s office on Forty-Fourth Street. The sun glistened in the sky and the children playing baseball in the park reminded me of my conversation about baseball books with Holly from the other night at her party.…

I look around and don’t see anything that caused the tapping. I sit up, yawn, and scratch at my feline-like ears. I yawn once more and stretch my stiff human bones.…
