That's Nothing
1 pp · anthropomorphic-funny animals

Count Gatto shows off his shiny new watch to Shadow, boasting that the jeweler guaranteed it will keep perfect time forever—but the Count isn't impressed. When Shadow questions his dismissal, Gatto reveals the real reason for his skepticism: a beat-up old watch he dropped in the river over a year ago that, he claims, is *still running*. The punchline lands with a classic twist on whose time is actually moving.

I Did What Ya Told Me

Hold That Train
6 pp · humor; children

When Rollo develops a sudden crush on his cousin Emily at her wedding, his best friend Rock sets out to remind him why that's a terrible idea—leading to a series of comedic mishaps involving a well-meaning groom, a marble bargain gone wrong, and a tumble down the stairs that somehow lands the boys in exactly the right outfit for their next adventure. This lighthearted tale from 1958 captures the silly logic and physical humor that made Rock and Rollo a beloved read for young audiences.

Money Only for One
1 pp · humor; children

Rock and Rollo face a problem in "Money Only for One": they've scraped together just enough cash for one movie ticket, and their favorite picture won't be showing again. When a bright idea strikes, one resourceful friend finds a creative workaround that just might let them both catch the show. It's a clever bit of kid logic that reminds you why these two made such a fun team.

"...Didn't It?"
5 pp · children

When Freddy can't get his dog Rover to fetch no matter how many times he tries, he turns to his pal Li'l Genius for advice—who applies the "law of averages" to predict that something *has* to happen on the very next throw. Freddy's optimism soars, but reality has a different lesson in store, and Li'l Genius finds an unexpected way to prove his theory right after all in this clever five-pager from 1958.

Me Too

Lil Mouse shares a hilarious moment with Atomic Mouse about the time laughter turned to tears—and when his pop catches him giggling at a slapstick mishap, the tables turn in the sweetest way.

Speaking of Ancestors
2 pp · humor; children

Rock and Rollo trades boasts about his distinguished family tree with a young girl, claiming an ancestor sailed on the Mayflower and another was knighted by King William—but Rock has a punchline that tops them all when he brings his own family history into the conversation. It's a quick, silly clash of one-upmanship that shows even the proudest pedigree can be deflated by a good joke.
