Dear Boomer,
I’m running for school president and am so excited! I already have my posters up around campus, and I’m pumped up. The best part is that I have NO people running against me! Speeches are on Friday—can you help me?

Vote for me, A.V.

Dear future prez,
Running unopposed is great. For your speech, keep it simple and straightforward. Talk about some of the things that make your school great, talk about the importance of school spirit and being positive, and then go into a few of the things that you want to help change as president.

Best of luck! Boomer Bear,

Dear Boomer,
I have a problem with this kid. He’s one of the most annoying kids in my school. He doesn’t get along with anyone and screams at every sentence. Even the teachers say that if he doesn’t scream it’ll be a miracle. When we try to tell him to be quiet, he SCREAMS EVEN LOUDER! What should I do? I try to IGNORE him, but he gets on every single one of my nerves!

Help! P.B.

HOW RU, P.B.?
(Sorry—I didn’t mean to shout like that!) It actually seems like this kid may not be able to control his loud ways. Even though it gets on your nerves, try not to let it get in the way of learning or having fun at school. May I suggest earplugs?

Dear Boomer,
I’m your biggest fan. I (made) all your recipes for kids. I’m a young artist, so I drew a picture of you! I love to draw!

Your biggest fan, J.A.

Dear J.A.,
Over the summer, you must’ve run across my “Gross Recipes” for creepy kitchen creations that kids can concoct. What was your favorite? Personally, I thought the “Dirt & Worms” was the tastiest. But the “Freaky Frog with Flies” seemed to be the healthiest. If you need any of these recipes, go to www.BearEssentialNews.com and click on “Bear Covers.” Then click on “Read Issue” below the picture of me in my chef’s hat. You’re a talented artist with great taste!

Keep on cookin’, Boomer Bear

Boomer,
I had a boyfriend, but he broke up with me for some other girl. What should I do?

Your friend, S.P.

Dear S.P.,
Ouch! That’s gotta hurt. But I hope you aren’t too upset—the school year has just started, and I’m sure that many of the boys at your school have changed a lot over the summer. As for the “other girl,” I wouldn’t go out of my way to be friends with her!

Your buddy,
Boomer Bear
