Mississippi, or as our cool imaginary character, Wiggly Wally the Wanderlust Walrus, likes to call it, "The Land of Sticky Fingers and Sweet Tea." This quirky state, shaped like a squiggly chili pepper, is tucked away in the southern part of the United States, basking in the warm, toasty sunshine. Wiggly Wally, with his giant tusks and jiggly belly, loves to watch the kids of Mississippi who participate in modeling activities. He thinks they're the bees' knees and the cat's meow! He finds it amusing how they strut their stuff on the runway with such grace, yet can't resist the sticky allure of the state's delicious barbecue ribs. You see, Mississippi kids are a different breed, in the perfect sense, of course. When they are not strutting on the runway or practicing their best smiles before the mirror, they are out and about, exploring the lush green parks, or fishing by the mighty Mississippi river. Their muddy boots and tousled hair tell a story of adventures in the Magnolia State. Wiggly Wally giggles behind his flipper, watching a little boy trying to get rid of barbecue sauce stains from his white shirt, minutes before his photoshoot. Wally loves this beautiful blend of glitz and grit. He thinks these Mississippi kids are as sweet as their acclaimed pecan pies and as bold as the spicy Creole food they love. So, if you visit Mississippi, you'll see a lot of sunshine, eat a lot of delicious food, and meet some amazing kids who can rock a runway, catch a fish, and aren't afraid of a little Mississippi mud! Just ask Wiggly Wally, he'll tell you it's true!
