You have the unexpected twist encountered in "Crunched for Time" where you certainly learn that timeliness is next to godliness (or at least receive a great reminder of why we are taught to avoid strangers). "Turning the Soil" proves that no book should be judged by its cover not person by their outward appearance...or plants. In "Teddy", we see that doors are locked to keep things out as well as in and "The Fishwife" will leave you with a healthy respect for people's privacy, lest you desire to lose ten pounds in a hurry. My favorite by far was actually the last story...."Toward the County Line". I think it was the real aspect of it, the "this-could-actually-happen" that sends shivers up you spine.

All of this when coupled with the inkblot-esque or negative space illustrations will have many readers reaching for their trusty nightlight...or teddy bear...or dog.
