Welcome to Time-Out
Welcome to the Official Roscoe Riley Time-out Corner.
It’s nice to have some company.
Getting stuck in time-out can be awfully boring.
Thing is, I got in a teensy bit of trouble. Again.
Even though I really, truly didn’t mean to.
You know, it’s hard for a guy like me to keep track of so many rules.
So I’ve started keeping a list.
This time I broke rule number 214: Do not kidnap your classmate’s teddy bear.
And hide him in the dirty clothes basket.
Who knew?
You’ve bear-napped before, right?
Oh.
Bunny-napped? Pig-napped? Kangaroo-napped?
Oh.
Well, looking back, I guess it does seem like a bad idea.
But maybe you’ll understand better if I tell you the whole story. . . .

Something You Should Know
Before We Get Started
You are never too old to love a stuffed animal.
I’ll bet one of your favorite grown-ups has an old teddy bear hidden in a closet.
And I’ll bet it has a silly name too.
Like Hugaboo. Or Mr. Tickletoes. Or Poopzilla.
Why do people always give their stuffed animals such crazy names?
Search me. I named my stuffed pig Hamilton.
He is way too cool to be called Poopzilla.
