Twelve dark, humorous (and occasionally puerile) short stories from the crayon of Peter Coomber. A fusion of Saki, Dahl and Mao Zedong (OK, so this description is stretching things a little bit).
This new edition now includes a story from the latest collection Painting By Numbers (June 2019).
No animals were harmed during the writing of these stories (except for the panda). Contains some strong language. Please hold your hands over your ears when reading these stories.
Crime - It was the butler who did it but where is the proof?
Appearances Can Be Deceptive - I worry about sloths; nasty vicious beasts
You Can't Tell A Book By Its Cover - Ruth the librarian is searching for Romance in the library
Blood - There's only so much evidence a small Jack Russell can dispose of
I, Chimp - A zoo chimp has artistic aspirations, but little material to paint with and no appreciation from the keepers
Chin A Panda - A man; a panda; a fight - who wins?
War And Peace - War And Peace by Lego Toyshop. Peace breaks out with disastrous consequences.
The Writing Club - Further adventures of Ruth the Librarian
Simon - Simon the pizza delivery robot gets sent on a long journey
My Acting Life - On film with the BBC Natural History Unit
First Kill Your Mammoth - Stone Age man digs a very large, deep hole
Force Equals Mass Times Acceleration - A death explained in terms of Physics. '..Derek little body was no match for the mass and velocity of the car, or the mass and inertia of the oak tree on the side of the A38..'
"Short, dark, dry, varied, easy-to-get-into stories that make you smile - some quirky, occasionally thought-provoking and some that made me laugh out loud! A great way of filling small amounts of otherwise dead time" - Dave of Witney, Oxfordshire March 2018
