A SPOTLESS STORY

You've heard the old adage that a leopard can't change his spots. Well, that bit of folk wisdom doesn't deter Oscar, a rather naive leopard who wants his spots gone. He comes upon a magic potion that can do just that. As with so many "magic potions" there's a problem - Oscar overdoes and pretty soon he's not spotted but striped, covered with plaid, and all sorts of ridiculous colorings. Youngsters will smile and may also learn that it's best to recognize and be satisfied with who you are.
