Pepper Ann gets a zit the Day before Picture Day!

"Perfect"

By Emma84432, Nov 21, 2010

Pepper Ann gets a zit the Day before Picture Day and has to go to Abe's Mall (The place where only un-cool people shop) to buy some Pimple Cream. When she is leaving, She gets caught on camera by someone Interviewing a band.
I Laughed at the part when Pepper Ann didn't want anyone to know she was there and then it showed where in the interview she walks by in the background and then Moose (Her little sister) says "Hey, That's you, Peppie!"
And also at the part Where Pepper Ann says: "I gotta change my name and move out of town!" Then Moose says: "Okay!"
Oh and at "Abe's Mall is the only place you can buy pimple cream at 50% off!" "That's a savings of 93 cents!"
This was a really great start to a really great series.moreless

Ah yes, every pre-teen can relate to that situation. Getting a zit or pimple is one of the worst things that can happen to anyone who reached the big 1-3. And of course let's not forget the whiteheads and blackheads, the little helpers of zits/pimples. It must've been hard for Pepper Ann to have to go to the most unpopular mall in Hazelnut to get a tube of zit cream. At least she was able to save some money what with all the sales and discounts. That is a good finanical lesson for anyone on a tight budget. You go Pepper Ann! You too discounts!moreless
