Submitted by Chantal H
Everybody had their secrets and everybody loved to share. We all had techniques for passing notes, like the stash slot in the back of the calculator, paper footballs, inside the Bic pen, etc.

After reading the Indian in the Cupboard I actually went out and grabbed this old cupboard in the field behind our house, sanded it, stained it, and waxed it, then put my favorite figurines in it, hoping that they would come to life. Unfortunately, all they ever did was turned brown from the wood treatment.
It was also a good lesson in tolerance and humility for us.

Ahhh, the candy necklace. What kid didn’t love these? You could parade around, pretending you were a princess, pirate, or anything else that wears cool necklaces, then you could amaze others by eating your colorful jewels! They came in a zillion different flavors, and let’s face it, these things are pure sugar- perfect for getting those highs you need to pull an all-nighter at your slumber party. Even teens aren’t ashamed to wear these epic wins because, hey- they’re amazingly cool! Long live the candy necklaces, rings, watches, and lipstick- and any other candy jewelry those geniuses at the candy companies can dream up.

Babar the Elephant was another Epic Win bedtime story that later became an epic win cartoon as well. Babar was so cultured and smart when dealing with Lord Rataxes, the Rhinoceros.

Goodnight Moon was an epic bedtime story. It taught us to say goodnight to all of the things we cared about, whether they be our family members, or stuff animals, or other inanimate objects in our room.
