Hey Kids,

We just want to remind you, TT and I can’t eat chocolate. It’s tempting, but a big NO NO. About all we can do is sniff or maybe a tiny nibble. This morning I followed a little girl eating a small box of chocolates that her mom had given her. She dropped one and I was overjoyed and delighted.

TT, started yelling, It’s our chance for chocolate. Don’t be afraid just EAT IT! 

I didn’t eat it but I squished it with my paw. Then I smelled the piece of round dark chocolate and gave it a quick lick.

TT screamed, “Don’t be coward! Eat it . . .MORE!!!”

I licked my paw. “Sorry, TT, this is the best I can do.

Every Valentine’s Day TT goes crazy for chocolate. We could get sick and die, and he knows the danger of dogs eating chocolate, but he doesn’t care.  I pigged out on one chocolate M&M. TT  growled, “MORE!” It’s a good thing I’m the boss of  my Terrible Tummy. He’s a dangerous, out of control foodie.

Kids, VALENTINE’S DAY IS A BUMMER, for us, but we want all of you to eat lots of candy  and enjoy your day. So giggle, nibble and eat. Have a valentine  CHOCOLATE GOBBLER!!

Now back to, Giggle and Go with Stubb and TT, to Italy. Such a delightful book. I hope your reading about Contento School and not just eating Valentine candy. Remember, Iris, Ben and I all jumped into the mud ditch on the playground! Mrs. Wreckman, out teacher, was sucked down into a hole in the water.

One thing I must tell you about is the biscotti bag. Mrs. Wreckman, the teacher, uses it as a teaching tool. She bribes her class with cookies. She doesn’t have to bribe TT and me.

“The teacher walks to her closet and unlocks the door. She hauls a huge canvas bag, locked with a pad lock and chain, to the front of the room. Mrs. Wreckman unlocks the pad-lock with a key from around her neck.The children look like silent statues with their hands open, waiting for a cookie. I’ve never seen this class so quiet. The teacher places two biscotti in each student’s hand.”

I finally sneak and hide in the biscotti bag. ‘I’m in! I did it. It’s dark in here. Not much room, but I can smell yummy cookies. I’ll slide down to the bottom.”

MY BISCOTTI LOVE SONG

I can’t see, biscotti are covering me, 

Under me, over me, packed on my sides, 

Over my ear, under my rear, oh dear,

  I ate ten biscotti and now twenty more, 

  Look out, hunry TT, you’ll hit the floor.

 Thirty biscotti, gives me a wiggle,

  TT and I love to piggle, piggle piggle.

That’s all I can tell you. Now it’s your turn. If you want to find out how I get out of Mrs. Wreckman’s biscotti bag you’ll have to read my book, Giggle and Go with Stubb and TT, to Italy. The first chapter is just a click away on this website. Don’t miss my exciting adventures in Rome, Italy at crazy Contento School.

Happy Reading and Happy Valentine’s Day!

Stubb and TT
