Behind the scenes of "If Fish Could Drive"

Lollipop & Sprinkles
Behind the scenes of
"If Fish Could Drive"
e-mail to editor:
"This is not in anyway a direct conversation between myself and my editor"
Me:
Hi,
I'm reading through the text, I think the names are backwards. Shouldn't Lollipop be the zebra and Sprinkles be the giraffe?
Editors reply:
No Stephen,
The names are not backwards Lollipop is the giraffe and Sprinkles is the zebra. The giraffe has zebra stripes and the zebra has the giraffe spots.
Me:
Okay that makes more sense, "funny!" Should Lollipops stripes be the color of a giraffe or black & white like a zebra would have?
Editors reply:
Good question I'll email Dana and find out what she was thinking.
Me:
Okay
Editors reply:
According to Dana Lollipop color should be Black & white like a zebra and Sprinkles should be the color of a giraffe
Me:
Okay thanks got it =)
