☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis anthology issue contains two main stories: "Dope" (a character in a spacecraft equipped with legs and loads exploring a swaying planet) encounters unusual ice and snow weather before landing, only to have his boat hijacked by characters who find his cargo of chestnuts and subsequently elude police. In another story, a character aspires to be a famous nurse but instead finds work opportunities in a corn field and later joins a musical band, eventually becoming a trumpet player hired for performances despite comic mishaps involving a wrench and interference with the band's automatic music machine.
A young boy tired of his dreams of musical fame takes a shepherd's job, only to discover his trumpet playing has an irresistible effect on livestock—and chaos follows wherever he performs. Little Boy Blue steps out of the nursery rhyme to set the record straight about why he was really napping under that haystack, revealing a tale of ambition, mishap, and the unexpected consequences of his musical talent. This 1948 humor story gives the classic nursery rhyme character a chance to tell his side of the story.
Wacky-Wolf gets a lesson in gardening from a friend and decides to start his own vegetable garden to save money—but six weeks later, he's got some surprising news about how his crops turned out.
