Beware the Ninja Weenies
“Cranston screamed.
His parents exchanged puzzled glances and then turned nervous smiles in his direction.
“What was that?” his mother asked.
“A dazzling smile,” Cranston said. “Didn’t you hear me the first time?”
“We did,” his father said. “But we aren’t sure what you mean. Your smile is just wonderful.”
“It’s not dazzling.” Cranston pointed toward the closest television, which was currently tuned to a channel featuring entertainment news. “In the ads, the beautiful people have dazzling smiles....”
Cranston, who was eight years old, watched far too much television, which wasn’t difficult, since there was a set in nearly every room in the house. Some celebrities could sing or dance. Others could act or tell jokes. Some didn’t seem to have any talent at all. But they all had dazzling smiles. Every single one of them. Cranston was pretty sure he didn’t have any talent, so his only hope of being a celebrity was his smile.
