There's A Hair In My Dirt by Gary Larson

Gary Larson writes: Our story begins with a family of worms who are having dinner one fine evening and Son Worm is unhappy. Unhappy because he's found a hair in his plate of dirt. It's the proverbial straw and it leads him to bemoan his fate as a worm - he's sick and tired of being a worm, tired of being at the bottom of the food chain. His father, upset by his outburst, decides to tell him the tale of a fair human maiden called Harriet. Even with the wonder of satellite television, Harriet loved the Great Outdoors and took many wondrous walks along her favourite woodland trail, adventures filled with mystery and magic. Unfortunately, although Harriet was fair and kindhearted (to a very dangerous degree) she was also, well, dumb. She didn't quite understand what she was seeing, didn't realise that in Nature, what you see is not necessarily what you get ...
THERE'S A HAIR IN MY DIRT is hysterical.. More entertaining than any science class I remember and the foreword by biologist Edward O. Wilson proves it's legit - WASHINGTON POST Bizarre and black-humoured...those made of slugs, snails and puppy dog's tails will love it! LIVERPOOL ECHO The illustrations are highly finished, and spotting the visual gags on each page is fun. THE TIMES Positioned somewhere between Aesop's fables and Roald Dahl... beautifully illustrated. BATH CHRONICLE
Gary Larson lives in Oregon with his wife and a Big dog. Although retired from his job as a daily syndicated cartoonist, he is now turning his graphical talent to new forms of technology.
