THE BIG SNIFF: Stories and Poems

eBook (Eric Johns Sept. 5, 2016) , 2 edition
THE BIG SNIFF Just suppose that when you sniffed you could smell things that weren't there. It would be very confusing. Then suppose that when you sniffed you saw things that weren't there. That would be even worse. You wouldn't know where you were. The best thing to do would be to stop breathing - not completely, of course - but just to take small sniffs not big ones. Which is exactly what Abby tried to do. Then one day she forgot she wasn't supposed to breathe deeply and she took the biggest sniff in the whole history of the world - and something terrible happened.THE LAST QUARRYMAN John had one ambition. He wanted to be a quarryman like his great-grandfather. But that wasn't possible because when his great-grandfather quarried stone he tunnelled underground. Today's quarrymen just blast big holes in the ground. But the underground tunnels are still there and John planned to go and explore them which he'd been told never to do because they were dangerous. Then his snobby cousin Elaine came to stay and threatened to mess up all his careful plans unless he took her with him which would spoil everything.COUNT DRACULA'S DAYMARE and THE GREAT HEY PRESTO'S FINAL TRICK are two poems which are really very short stories.
