It all started when Phoebe skipped a rock across a pond and accidentally hit a unicorn in the face. Improbably, this led to Phoebe being granted one wish, and using it to make the unicorn, Marigold Heavenly Nostrils, her obligational best friend. But can a vain mythical beast and a nine-year-old daydreamer really forge a connection?

I’m surprised Max didn’t ask for Phoebe to spell “nuts”. ::grins::

Learning should be more cooperative than competitive.

So begins one of the great rivalries of history. Not that Max knows about it.

I read MAD a lot as a kid! It shows sometimes.

Im excited to see how things go and honestly I can’t decide what I want to see happen because my mind has thought up so many cool ways to take this strip! not just in regards to the spelling bee but in regards to the strip overall. but I know it always goes the way that I never expected but also the way thats just perfect. It’s like I can see unlimited possibilities with no wrong choice and it just gives me the desire to choose all of the above. If only I could fine another masterfully drawn and written strip about kids and unicorns that was already on that path not taken.

In the 5th or 6th grade we had a spelling bee. It was down to me and a girl named Desiree. She had the longest brown hair. Anyway I messed up spelling “disease.” She got it and won.

Some times Jeopardy questions are in the form of spelling the them.

1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades, I occasionally had to dance around the fact that I was the only kid in the school who had tested with a higher IQ than the principal’s daughter. Once the two of us were caught in a spelling-bee sudden death that seemed to last for hours. I eventually went out on a technicality (didn’t repeat the word before spelling it), and I decided to keep my mouth shut about her having committed the same mistake five minutes earlier. (Well, she was a nice kid, I was feeling chivalrous, and, besides, I didn’t see any way out of it that wouldn’t be lose-lose for me.)
