He pulled her in a little closer under that red umbrella. That moment, she knew he was the one.

Cowboy Bill. He wanted to be a cowboy. So did I when I was a child. Cowboy, not cowgirl, because we know that Roy always had more fun than Dale, plus he got to ride Trigger (I watched Roy Rogers on TV in reruns in the early 1960s).

 

Whitman Tiny Tales.

Those of us who are a certain age will recall this cheerful book plate, found inside Whitman's Tiny Tales Books (the one this is from sold for 5 cents, but I recall them costing 35 cents each).

 

I cleaned out the scrawl left by original young owner so that I could have a bookplate to use in my own books, so I've uploaded it for you to use, too.

 

Just don't redistribute it in collage sheets or sell it as your own image. Print some out and put 'em in your books!

She said "no!"

He said "please..."

I love the little verse printed at the end of this Whitman Tiny Tales Book, "The Mockingbird's Joke". I have accumulated a nice collection of these childhood favorites. I plan to scan and post some photos of them soon!

It is a lesser known fallacy that most of the smallest diaries in the wardrobe are kept by socks. Here are some snippets of sock-ly wisdom and activity: "scrunched up, in a bag", "in a bag for seventeen days now, quite neat and quite quiet", "today i am the happy one, and also the happy too", "spent a great afternoon on a train, wrapped around Mister Fragile - nice fellow, very safe", "a day of struggle with my next postal pontoon move". Tiny Edward Saturday enjoys diaries (whether they be woollen or a cotton mix), but he wishes it to be known that he lives each day freely, like an eagle, and not in a shoe.

tiny tales by Tale Tellers

How I love Andy Runton's Owly series and ALL Jeffrey Brown graphic novels!

Crunches, taps, shuffles and clacks are so often followed by fluttering. Tiny Edward Saturday saw this and it gave him cause to consider: why do tiny birds fly away from my footsteps when i am so far? After tracking down some talkative tweeters, and undertaking some whispery phone calls, he was in possession of the incredible truth. Birds beat a flapping retreat because they are constantly mistaking people for those other invisible earth walkers, the ones with 20 foot arms who love to tickle feathers. Why, they say, why wont they ever take squawk for an answer?

Again, the papers jump up from the table and flutter wildly, some slip to the floor. Tiny Edward Saturday sees a scatter of dandelion seeds rush through the air in front of his face. Each time it happens, the buffet pushes him backwards. Not far, just about the length of a lozenge. There is an explanation for this phenomena, and it is this: recently while folding his astronomical handkerchief in a meddling kind of way, Tiny has created a black hole nostril, and sneezes are arriving, accelerated from noses that are forwards in history.

Thrown through the window of the Bundelkand Rajah, the wonderful 'it' has arrived. "I like it. I dont know what it is, or where or how either, and i like it all the same" thought Tiny Edward Saturday all to himself. When he gets an inkling of a like that is similar to this like, (usually the like is a 2 o'clock like), then he can often say "I like it" straight away. Such is the decisiveness of the tremendous personal preference that Tiny can call upon in times, typically mid-afternoon times, such as these. You might say there are many terrific reasons to feel positively inclined towards it, and on another day Tiny Edward Saturday would elaborate in detail. But now is not the time to waffle on and on about liking stuff, is it?

He has a method, of course he does. However, Tiny's method is not of his own devising. It took no less than 6 years training from the sock transforming spirit known as The Shrouded High Steward and his Voluminous Festschrift. A serious undertaking by anybody's standards. During his studies Tiny was only permitted to talk or think about socks. Months were devoted to blindfolded sock taste tests. Sock songs were sung, toe-nails were measured and maintained with honour and a light heart. His teacher used 'learning without learning' and sure enough, on the morning of the two thousand one hundred and ninetienth day, Tiny Edward Saturday knew socks.
