Publisher Comments:
Simon Snootle and OTHER small stories describe seven misguided tales of humorous woe by several downtrodden characters that are simply looking to be themselves. The book begins with Simon Snootle, a meager young man who lived most of his life at the bottom of a cistern with neighborhood cats. He is not aware of any tragedy of the situation, but rather makes the best of it, knowing that eventually more things will fall in as he did.

From the Author:
"In creating my stories, I wanted to make sure I had a personal connection with how each book was created. The process I entail is in writing, illustrating, drafting, printing, binding, and pressing each by hand. This creates a slight imperfection that adds a sense of life to each one that would not otherwise be present in a mass produced book. My books are completely handmade!"
