The Tooter Family Story
(printed on the
backcard) |
"Mrs. Tooter, the school teacher, flew to
Gardenville with her two chicks, Amy Tooter and Ian Tooter, under her
wing. There they met the other Mini Surprise Families, who persuaded
Mrs. Tooter to stay and run the school. An old boot was dusted off
and everyone helped decorate the new schoolhouse, which opened soon
afterwards with a full class of Mini Surprise Families children: frogs,
rabbits, ducks, bears, and, of course, her very own little owl chicks."
|
|
The Schoolhouse was originally released as the
"Teeny
Weeny High School" in Vivid Imaginations' Teeny Weeny Families toy line.
