The Tick grinned as the students walked in. "Just as a reminder, chums, next week will be a scrapbook review! Please try to get your books finished by by the time the workshop starts."

"This week, we'll be working on putting together a powerful friend. You'll notice that in front of you, you have four pieces of wood linked to a plank by tiny chains. If you look closely, you might notice that those pieces are arms and legs. If you look even closer to that, you might notice a face waiting to come out! Today you'll be bringing life to your very own Little Wooden Boy! Using the tools in front of you, you have to give him a face. Using the tools inside your head, you have to give him a name. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me or-" Tick pulled a wooden figure of his own out from under the table, "- ask Little Wooden Boy IV!"

"This week for your scrapbooks, we're focusing on a certain phrase: 'you can't judge a book by it's cover.' While it's a reasonable saying for many things, it doesn't count in scrapbooks. In scrapbooking, the cover is the outer extension of everything that's inside! The cover should be as much a piece of art as anything on the inside. Mine is a simple blue, but if you look carefully you'll see a really keen antennae pattern in it. You don't have to get that detailed, but we need something for the front of the book that says your name in a non-literal fashion!"
