Four Color #799

In "Bored of Education," young Priscilla is given the unexpected chance to run her school for a day when Superintendent Pennleigh appoints her as interim superintendent. With a mix of enthusiasm and playful rebellion, she tackles the job in ways no adult ever would—turning routine duties into something delightfully, and surprisingly, different.

When Priscilla takes her father’s broken TV set to an auto repair shop to borrow tools for a fix, she doesn’t know he’s already called in a professional repairman. By the time she returns and tries her own hand at fixing it, the damage is done—again. Her father’s return sets off a chain of events that leaves the repairman back at the door, wondering what went wrong.

In "The Printed Word," Jo and her friends are caught in a web of mistaken identity when Lester prints fake rodeo passes, selling one to Priscilla for a dime. When Priscilla’s father gives her a real pass, she’s surprised to find she’s the only one admitted—leaving her friends scrambling to explain how she got in.

In "A Hungry Audience," Priscilla’s longing to see her favorite movie again leads her brother Carlyle to stay past his welcome—until their father shows up, drawn in by the film’s charm. What begins as a simple errand turns into a shared family outing, as even Priscilla’s mother brings dinner to the theater, turning the screening into a mealtime adventure.
