== Description ==
One lovely spring day at Duckfoot Crossing elementary school, Bo Dilly comes up with a plan to get himself and the other children (including a young Elvira Coot) sent home early: they will paint green spots on themselves, and pretend to be sick. However, when Doc Swaller, called in by the worried teacher Mrs Pinkerton, sees through their trick and pretends to prescribe them a strange concoction of medicine, the children decide that it might be better to stay at school after all.
