Winding down from a gorgeous Saturday evening on the porch, I curled up in my chair and took a romp through Al Columbia's new "Pim and Francie" book last night.
Although I adore Columbia's Fleischer-esque illustration style, I was a bit disturbed (in an entertaining way) to see those cute little ragamuffins subjected to horror after horror. Imagine Swee'pea crawling into a combine while fleeing from the Sea Hag and you're on the right path. When you hear Francie announce "I sure hope we don't see the bloody, bloody killer", you kind of know what to expect.
"Mom! Come quick! There's a bloody thing moving in the toilet"
"What did Mommy tell the two of you about using the downstairs bathroom?"
"We're not s'posed to"
"That's right..."
You get the idea...
