Our Pussy

- A Children's Tale

Bag om Our Pussy

Three noble children of the Buttonhole Marquisate: Jon, Wilma, & Georgie. A capricious Ma-má, ever at her cauldron or green liqueurs; a dear Pa-pá, in the fields or at the gentlemen's baths; a tongue-speaking Housekeeper; village gossips; hidden children in attics; and an errant slew of stableboys; a devious, clawed midwife... oh yes, and do not forget the nanny, Pussy. The eldritch village of Buttonhole is a strange one indeed. With their nanny, affectionately named "Pussy," join the Buttonhole Children in a tale of tongue-in-cheek, double entendre scenes illustrated in full-page images; with rudely suggestible chapter titles, and scenarios expertly harboring shocking innuendo. An entire book of artwork--each hinting at subtle meaning (pay close attention!)--reminiscent of Edward Gorey. Numerous literary references are craftily inserted into the narrative, from VC Andrews, Shirley Jackson, & Thomas Tryon's Harvest Home, to the dramatic suicides of Sylvia Plath and Virginia Woolf. Of course, we did not forget about yellow wallpaper! Get your copy and keep it away from the kids. Or not. The Reviews are in! "A remarkable bedtime story for any child ages 5-8. I've read it to my children or uh son countless times. I have seen firsthand how the author's valuable lessons instill the character-building traits of practicing self-reliance, problem-solving, and cleaning up one's messes." --Mrs. Patsy Ramsey, Pageant Mom * Hell; formerly Boulder, CO. "Having a limited supply of class-appropriate lit-ra-ture, I was delighted to discover this gem amongst the tattered rabble provided at my establishment. Being the world's foremost expert on working with children, I will undoubtedly add "Our Pussy" to my syllabus come July 2037." --Ghislaine Maxwell, Former Nanny * Tallahassee, FL.
