Rupert would be carried around with his head and arms sticking out of the top of my sweater or out of a pocket of my backpack, when I arrived in class or at a friends house Rupert would be posed reading a book on top of a cupboard or holding a spoon at lunchtime sometimes he would be posed doing naughty things and if any of the teachers noticed him I would get spanked and told to put him away.
Those teachers who wouldn’t allow me to bring Rupert into class with me (and he was banned from the entire school for about six months)
