HOLLAND ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: Classroom is infected with chocolate fever!

ALERT! ALERT! There was a serious outbreak of "Chocolate Fever" at Holland Elementary School recently!

The outbreak was found in Mrs. Stewart's third-grade classroom. 

Children and staff from across the school were puzzled by strange brown spots that appeared on the faces of all Mrs. Stewart's pupils. Meanwhile, anyone who walked into the classroom became infected!

Well, after an inspection by local, county, state, worldwide and intergalactic health authorities, they all came to a conclusion that the outbreak was caused by "reactions to a celebration involving the completion of the funny book, 'Chocolate Fever.'" "Chocolate Fever" was written by Robert Kimmel Smith.

The book, written in 1972, focuses on Henry Green, who likes to eat lots of chocolate. In some cases, he added chocolate or chocolate flavoring to other foods -- like mashed potatoes. One day, he comes down with an usual medical condition called "Chocolate Fever." Later, Henry learns about moderating his comsumption.

The pupils had a great time putting chocolate spots on their faces and enjoyed the chocolate treats.

In a related matter, Principal Massucci was also infected as soon as she entered the room -- and all the children KNOW what a fan she is of chocolate!
