- Abstract
- en_US Fourteen quirky, whimsical, dark stories, some in verse, most about unhappy love. Enjoyable, playful illustrations. The spine is damaged, so that there are breaks between 24 and 25, 40 and 41, 56 and 57. Lazarus and Martha (23) features a dormouse enclosed in a thick web during winter's sleep by an adoring spider. We get a garden plants' view of the coming of a terrier pup. A newt falls in love with a tadpole and, resisting young love, waits for him.... An egg that refuses to be hatched becomes corrupt and explodes. A grasshopper arranges to marry a glowworm at night so that he can be sure to find her after his random jumps, but what he sees first is her reflection in a pond. A starfish eats a winkle's mother and then pleads his love for the daughter. Wild!
