And now it’s time for Manic Mystery Monday so pop your thinking caps on and teachers dial 1420 when you have heard the entire question and your class has an answer:

Question: President Calvin Coolidge received an animal as a Thanksgiving gift.  What type of animal was it?

Answer: A racoon.

Class: Collins.

Note: In November 1926 a kind citizen sent the 30th President of the United States a live raccoon to cook and serve as Thanksgiving dinner.  The president loved that animal so much that he pardoned it and adopted it as a pet named Rebecca.

Have a marvelous Monday everybody!
