10 A Villain Gets Herself into Hot Water I won’t lie to you Strange things had been going on for a while but I didn’t realize how truly exceptional I was until the day of the dancing alligator attack It was noon at the track and field semifinals Top athletes from my school Gledhill Elementary our rival school R R Reginald and all the other elementary schools in the city of Gleason were gathered at Blinkstone Park We were supposed to be eating our packed lunches at the picnic tables near the duck pond then doing our warm-up stretches while we waited for Coach Shipley to hand out the race numbers But because I’m kind of a natural at the hundred meter dash I wasn’t too worried about preparing Instead I was putting the finishing touches on my newest comic strip Cat the Kibble Catastrophe In this action-packed episode 1
