b'Make Me Smile\\nOnce upon a time there was a lovely girl called Isa. When Isa smiled, she was also a beautiful girl but, more importantly, everybody around her smiled too. In fact, it wouldn\\u2019t be an exaggeration to say that the entire happiness of the world depended on Isa\\u2019s smiling.\\n\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 Mick was worried, therefore, when Isa walked into class and sat down without so much as a \\u2018Hello\\u2019. He soon saw what the problem was: a great big spot on Isa\\u2019s chin. Wishing Isa\\u2019s spot a short-lived life, Mick proceeded to tell Roald Dahl\\u2019s delightful tale about a very special girl called Matilda. Today, however, nobody seemed to be laughing.\\nMick woke up the next morning with a throbbing pain at the end of his nose. Needless to say, the kids thought this was hilarious; especially Isa, whose spot had disappeared miraculously overnight. This reversal of fortunes inspired Mick\\u2019s Universal Spots Theory, which states that \\u201cthe total number of spots in the world at any given moment is a constant\\u201d.\\n\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 So next time you wake up with an ugly spot on your hooter or wherever, remember that some poor soul elsewhere is celebrating that they have just lost theirs. And smile .'
