Goofy
When the worm family (Father Worm, Mother Worm, and Junior Worm) sits down to dinner, Junior makes a horrible discovery: there's a long golden hair in his dirt. This is the last straw, if it's not birds trying to eat them or fishermen trying to put them on hooks, it's dirt for three meals a day, and now THIS! Puffing thoughtfully on his pipe, Father begins to unravel a story to Junior, a story about a beautiful (if rather stupid) young maiden named Harriet, and her adventures in the forest. There's a lesson for Junior, a lesson that makes him glad that he's a worm.

Gary Larson is a well-known artist, famous for his Far Side cartoons, and who but him could make a wonderful, uplifting story about worms? OK, it's pretty kooky. Make sure you study each picture, because Gary slipped something extra into most of them. This is a goofy story, one that will please anyone with an offbeat sense of humor. I highly recommend it, it's great!
