'What are we to do about the bees?' asks the ant to the butterfly, in this gentle eco tale.
For the first time in ant’s memory, butterfly has no words of comfort. A newly hatched butterfly thinks he has an answer, but it will require many wings and great cooperation.
An uplifting story that brings new meaning to the phrase 'the butterfly effect'.

Story
A man arrives home from an international flight to find that the airline has delivered his lost luggage. Wonderful, except he never lost his luggage in the first place. The story is told through his increasingly maddening call to customer service as he tries to figure out how, and why, the airline created a perfect replica of his suitcase and possessions.

Story
A crotchety nightwatchman in a whaling museum contemplates Neptune the stuffed sea lion, originally owned by P.T. Barnum. In his admiration for the kingly animal, he studies ventriloquism to give Neptune a voice. When a field trip comes through the museum, he has an unexpectedly meaningful exchange with a precocious, like-minded child...and Neptune.
