Contains 7 stories
Dress Mess
7 pp · Humor, Teen

Tippy Teen wants a $19.98 dress badly enough to ask her father for an allowance advance, but when that fails, her friend Go-Go suggests she earn the money herself—by working at the dress shop that's advertising for a salesgirl. What starts as a simple plan to rack up one day's pay quickly spirals into a comedy of mishaps, with Tippy managing to break merchandise, overcharge customers, and cause complete chaos on the shop floor. By the time she's fired, the damages far exceed the dress's price, but her father's response to the whole debacle might just surprise her.

Peaches and Scream Complexion
6 pp · Humor, Teen

When Tippy decides to borrow her mother's mud-pack to impress a boy at school, she and her friend Go-Go discover that the beauty treatment has a mind of its own—and won't come off. What starts as a cosmetic mishap spirals into comical chaos as the hardened mask traps the girls' faces, drawing concerned parents and creating increasingly ridiculous complications. By the time they finally find a solution, there's a fresh problem waiting that'll teach them a lesson about dabbling with beauty products.

Net Results
5 pp · Humor, Teen

When Tippy and her classmates compete to catch the rare Laxibillus Metamorphus butterfly for a homework exemption, a field trip meant to appreciate nature turns into a comedy of sabotage and mishaps. As Tippy's team spirals into bickering over how to hunt the elusive creature, their rival Ashley Hartburn may just pull off the win—though not without some messy consequences along the way.

Scientifically Yours
6 pp · Humor, Teen

When a boy named Egghead invents an electronic dating computer to play matchmaker, he thinks his system is foolproof—until his client discovers that the "perfect match" his machine selected has forged her punch card to break up her real boyfriend. Now it's a race to expose the con before science ruins what chemistry built. A hilarious take on teen romance in the age of automation, complete with tongue-in-cheek jabs at famous lovers who'd never survive a computer algorithm.

Bye Baby Boris
6 pp · Humor, Teen

When Tommy and Tippy agree to babysit for the Bensons, Tommy sees a chance to impress Tippy with his romantic charm—until Boris, the couple's mischievous young son, turns the evening into absolute chaos. As Boris wreaks havoc with toy guns, wagons, and every trick in his arsenal, Tommy finds himself in a frantic battle to keep up, all while Tippy watches from the sidelines convinced he's a natural with children. What happens when Boris finally catches on to Tommy's real game makes for a hilarious twist on the babysitting gig.

Great Skate
6 pp · Humor, Teen

Tippy and her classmates compete in a skateboard stunt-riding contest, with various teens attempting daring tricks—until Principal Phogg arrives to shut down the spectacle, only to unexpectedly take a spin himself. When the Principal accidentally lands an impressive move, he ends up claiming the trophy in the most humorous way possible.

Runaway Romance
7 pp · Humor, Teen

Tippy tries to win Tommy's heart by pretending to share his passion for cars, but when she innocently removes a brick that was keeping his vehicle from rolling, his prized sedan careens out of control—leaving Tommy with damage bills instead of dance tickets. Her scheme to impress him backfires spectacularly, though she discovers a silver lining in the chaos that follows.
