This year's prizes... get 'em while they're good!
Today is September 14th. And you know what that means... Poptropica's fifth birthday! That's right, our favorite online video game has lasted for five whole turns around the sun. And it's time to celebrate! Poptropicans now have the chance to receive the free color-changing birthday balloon in the store, and to win a limited-edition Poptropica costume of a birthday cake with a '5' candle on it!
The limited-edition costume can be obtained like so: walk into any multiplayer room and you'll find it filled with multicolored balloons. Look for any balloon with a big number '5' on it and click on it to get the costume! It was very hard last year, but today I went into the Soda Pop Shop in Early Poptropica and I found the balloon on my first try. Nice, eh? And now on to some other news...

Yesterday was Roald Dahl Day, the birthday of the author Roald Dahl, the author of some great classics like The BFG and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. In fact, as a present to us all for Roald Dahl Day, the Creators have announced the next island early... it's based on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, just like I predicted! We'll have to wait a bit for the details... presumably after Super Villain island. Stay tuned, and in the meantime you can click on the picture of the cover of the book to the right to buy it on Amazon. Tidbit: the book was published 1964 and is still a popular book today. Isn't that interesting.
