In the Game
Before the events of Jumpstart Reading for First Graders, Mel was a magician who liked to play mean jokes on people in the carnival, mostly on the clowns who he has never liked. He was quite jealous of his assistant Katia, a hard worker who diligently practiced her magic. Eventually, Mel went too far with his jokes, and the ringmaster fired him, replacing him with Katia. Mel was so angry that he turned all the performers into puzzle pieces and hid them somewhere in the carnival, leaving their finding up to Frankie and the player of the game.
