This has to be the most delicious book title I've ever seen! I had to have the book for the title alone. The stories within are not so much narratives with a beginning and an end as snapshots of small worlds teetering on the brink, about to collapse into chaos at any moment. The humor of the title is found in the odd situations with people, often children, just managing to cope. There are three stories in the book that will stay with me for a long time, including the title story.
