This original work from the creator of the Far Side, Gary Larson, is a faux children's fable for adults. Told by a Daddy worm to his whining son who hates worm life, its moral is that each living thing is special and has a unique purpose in the circle of life. To illustrate, Poppa Worm tells the story of Harriet, a beautiful young woman who walks through the forest to admire its beauty and grandeur-only the reader will learn what she's really seeing, the juxtaposition causing lots of laughs.
