Tattoo
Book Six, Story Four
Tattoo is such a handsome boy. His black spots look like tattoos. That’s how he got his name! Like Tikki, Tattoo loves to be petted and, in fact, they are brother and sister. Tattoo loves to roam in the woods, so it’s no wonder that he met a skunk like Tippy. At night, Tattoo is always inside the barn. He wouldn’t miss a meal of canned cat food for anything!

‘Wolfie the Most Beautiful Pony in the World’ was my favorite in Adventures At Green Apple Acres because I strive to see the inner beauty in people and other beings. As an example, my favorite dogs have always been mutts — not classically built, with features that can be easily judged, like purebreds at shows — but scruffy, one-of-a-kind companions, with personalities as unique as their outward appearances. And when I was in school, I avoided the cliques of girls who seemed overly concerned with their looks and clothing. Instead, I gravitated toward those who may not have been perfect on the outside, but they had a brain and a sense of humor, which I found much more interesting than a pretty dress or impeccable make-up and hair. So, like the character John, I can appreciate someone for all they have to offer, and see past what meets the eye.
