The following set of urgent notes were written on the back of Dandelion Duck's Swan Lake program. Both were received during intermission and were super-secretly passed inside a box of Jujubes. Or maybe it was the Reese's Pieces.
Happy Reading, Primrose
--- 1ST INTERMISSION ---
Dear Prim,
Oh. My. Duck. Myrtle called her Granny-Mouse during the spinniest part of the ballet. On her PHONE - right HERE in the THEATER. I showed her my sternest duckbill and said SHHHH, but she went on chatting like she was in her bedroom. Act Two is about to start. What to do with our little friend?
Will write again at next intermission. What some candy? Isn't this box the best note delivery disguise?
Dandelion
--- 2ND INTERMISSION ---
Dear Prim,
Your plan worked! I asked Myrtle if she would like it if we talked on our phones during her neighborhood hula hoop performances. She said she wouldn't care, but her ears turned pink. Like, woah... as pink as your new rain boots. P, the ears of a mouse never lie. I put M's phone in my ballet slipper and she can't find it! She's crawling under the seat...uh oh...OUCH! She found it.
Oops, the lights are blinking. Gotta go! Wait, did you see my ballet slippers? I've been twirling for weeks. This dance should be called Duck Lake. Let's rewrite it on the way home. Okay, see you on the bus.
Spinning, twirling, whirling - your swaniest-swooniest-dancing-duck friend,
Dandy
