don’t know.”
    â€œI thought you had it.”
    â€œI put the cage on your desk.”
    â€œI put it on the floor over there.”
    â€œThe cage is empty!” shouted Mrs. Patty. “The ferret must have escaped!”
    â€œOh no!”
    â€œMr. Wiggles!” screamed Neil the nude kid.
    He totally freaked and went running out of the class. Meanwhile, Mr. Klutz and Mrs. Patty were still talking over the loudspeaker.

    â€œWe have to find the ferret!” shouted Mr. Klutz.
    â€œIt mustbe around here somewhere!”
    â€œHow far could a ferret get?”
    â€œIt could be anywhere!”
    â€œWe’ll have to search the school!”
    â€œLock the outside doors!” shouted Mr. Klutz. “Don’t tell the students that the ferret is missing! They might freak out!”
    But it was too late. By now everybody knew that President Wiggles was missing, and everybody was freaking out. Miss Daisy told us to stay in our seats, but there was no way I was going to stay in my seat with a ferret running around loose. Those things look like long rats! It could be in my desk for all I knew.
    We all went running into the hallway, and guess who we saw there?

    I’m not going to tell you.
    Okay, okay, I’ll tell you. It was Dr. Carbles, the president of the Board of Education!
    â€œWhat’s going on here?” asked Dr. Carbles. Unlike Dr. Seuss, he’s a real doctor, but he isn’t very cool.
    We couldn’t tell him what was going on, because the whole school was going crazy. Kids dressed up like presidents were spilling out of classrooms and running all over the hall, shouting and smashing into one another.
    â€œHelp!” somebody screamed. “There’s a wild ferret on the loose!”
    â€œRun for your lives!”
    â€œFind the ferret!”
    Mr. Macky was shouting at us, trying to control the situation.
    â€œEveryone back to your classes!” he yelled. “Please remain calm!”
    Calm? Was he nuts? There was a ferret running around the school!
    Somebody knocked over Dr. Carbles. The teachers were yelling for us to go back to class. If President Wiggles was smart, he would have found a good hiding place where he wouldn’t get trampled by some kid.
    Meanwhile, me and Ryan and Michael were sneaking around like Secret Service agents on the hunt for President Wiggles.
    It was cool. You should have been there.

President Wiggles, Reporting for Doody
    Well, we searched all over the school, but we just couldn’t find President Wiggles. When we finally returned to our class, everybody was looking around the room. President Wiggles could be anywhere . Poor Neil the nude kid was really upset. If his ferret was lost, his parents were goingto be mad.

    Miss Daisy said President Wiggles was sure to turn up and we had to get back to work. It was time for us to give our oral reports. Little Miss Perfect Andrea got to go first. She was dressed up like John F. Kennedy.
    â€œâ€˜Ask not what your country can do for you,’” Andrea said. “‘Ask what you can do for your country.’”
    I had to admit that Andrea’s oral reportwas pretty good. She told us that John F. Kennedy was a war hero and that he started the space program and the Peace Corps. He was cool.
    â€œExemplary!” Miss Daisy said as Andrea walked back to her seat. (That means “excellent” in grown-up talk.)
    â€œWait until you hear my oral report,” I whispered to Ryan. “I’m gonna blow Andrea’s doors off.”
    Next it was crybaby Emily’s turn. She was dressed up like Abraham Lincoln with a suit, tie, big black hat, and fake beard.
    Emily’s report was really sad. She told us that Abraham Lincoln was dirt poor asa kid, his three-year-old son died, his wife went crazy, and the country was at war with itself the whole time he was president. And then, to top it all off, a few days after the war ended, some guy shot
