E CONTEST

Cover This Cover!

Did you notice that the

cover of this issue is a little

plain? A bit, shall we say,

boring? Here’s where you

come in: please cover the

front and back covers with

your own drawings,

doodles, musings, and

more. Just this once, we’ve

left off the cover’s glossy

coating, so many types of

writing utensils will work.

Doodle as long as you like.

Then take a photo of your

marked-up cover and send

us the pic. We’ll publish our

favorites in a future issue.

The March 2017 issue revealed a little-known fact:

the HPBs (hot pink bunnies) live in hive-like

communities. We asked readers to create

diagrams of the HPB hive. What does it look like?

How does it work? Readers delivered a deluge of

delightful diagrams! We enjoyed each entry, and

we’re sure that these winners have inside info

about the HPB hive.
