No Ticket, No Ball Game!!!
5 pp · humor; children

When a youngster schemes to snag a free ticket to the big game between the Philadelphia Willies and the Cincinnati Stars, his resourceful approach backfires in the most hilariously ironic way possible. It's a quick, clever bit of comedy that captures what happens when a kid's determination meets the real world—and the law.

Dad,.. You Made the Dream Too Short!
4 pp · humor; children

A young boy's dream of chasing a massive grizzly bear around the world is cut short when his father wakes him up—and he's convinced he'll never have that same dream again. Desperate to make his dad feel better about the interruption, the boy decides to take matters into his own hands with a scheme that involves rousing the neighborhood in the middle of the night.

So That's Where...!
1 pp · humor; children

A young woman explains her foolproof method for lifting her spirits—a new hat always does the trick—only to have her companion arrive at a hilariously literal conclusion about where such fashion finds actually come from. It's a quick, punchy gag that plays on the gap between what she means and what he hears, pure throwaway fun from 1958.

I Got a Question!
4 pp · humor; children

Li'l Menace has a question for you, and he wants to make sure you know him first—so he walks you through his daily life, from his exhausted parents and unfortunate baby sitters to his library visits, money-making schemes, and tendency to cause chaos wherever he goes. By the time he asks why everyone calls him "Li'l Menace," you might just have your answer, though a chance encounter with a kind stranger suggests there's more to the story than meets the eye.
