How to die laughing and survive!

FUNNY…! REFRESHING…! FABULOUS…!

Heaven is full of laughter! These gleeful words were said in a dream to the author. They came from his late Literary Agent, Elspeth Cochrane. Her colleague, before he went to prison for embezzlement, had written, ‘highly original stories’ - stories uplifting enough to read inside - and out! For years, Christopher Gilmore’s fables have been enjoyed by all ages, one book reviewer called him ‘A latter-day Aesop’.

Who else would think of turning a bogey stuck up a Bishop’s nose into a ghost story? Now meet clever Wilf judged as a ‘thicky’. See how he outwits his teachers. Then there’s clown dad Horace the Hedgehog teaching his kids how to cripple cars. And big-hearted Joyce the Oyster and self-centred Butch the Badger watching others keep death
on the road as a helpful zebra, crossing himself, his holy intentions get a knock. And loving Locusts taking up Holy Orders for dodgy reasons as Sister Stork struggles to deliver a baby to Paradise Island. Adam or Adolph?

With these stories, together we can send ever more love and gratitude for all of life’s extra-ordinary potential - and if we can die of laughter, better than this, let’s all live better with daily laughter!
