another trip down the rabbit hole...

C1 "Curious and Curiouser!"
I was getting frustrated with trying to communicate with the upside down creatures and looked away for a moment. When I looked back I found a book laying where it had stood.

I picked up the book. The title was," Alexander Grahm Bell and The Mostly Mousetrap."

I flipped through the book until I saw an illustration similar to the boxo of the mousetrap board game. I read the captions. "ALexander had many people working for him all brilliant but not a single one of them could figure out how to build a mousetrap that worked. It took a child's game to inspire the simplest answer to the age-old question. Cheese, the traps needed cheese and a spring and a bit to grab the mouse." I really wasn't finding much to get enthused about in the prose so I closed the book and dropped it.

Onwards. Wasn't I after a rabbit?
