A time-travel prototype lands in a Viking village. A horse-riding fiddler crab reveals his secret. A despotic tyrant is confronted by a penguin. The author meets Bill Murray. Each story is “an imaginative gem… funny, charming, surprising, whimsical..” (Don Ferguson, Royal Canadian Air Farce) with a style that’s “tight, airy and whimsical” (Colleen McKie, Lavender Lines Book Review)

A man’s shoes start telling passersby what he’s really thinking. A bumblebee witnesses a plot by four inept criminals go horribly wrong. A grizzly bear waiting tables reconsiders his career choices.
