Genevieve is terribly careless, Muriel complains about everything, and Chester is absolutely the laziest turkey you will ever meet. While Caleb and Conrad are perfectly polite and thoughtful, their good manners never seem to do them any good at all!
This hilarious twist on classic storytelling throws all the usual rules out the window. Instead of learning a valuable lesson about being good, you get to read deliciously wicked tales about characters who are selfish, greedy, and gloriously lazy.
Get ready for unexpected endings and plenty of laughs in a book where you definitely should not pay attention to the morals.

Theodore the elephant has a big problem. He hurt his leg and cannot meet his cousin at the end of the forest. Naturally, all his animal friends are eager to help by offering him plenty of excellent advice. The crab suggests he simply grow a new leg, while others offer equally useless ideas.
Listening to advice is fine, but it does not actually fix Theodore's leg. It takes a straight talking opossum to step up and show everyone the difference between just talking and actually lending a helping hand.
This clever and warm story shows exactly what it means to be a true friend when someone is in trouble.
