(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Andrew Glass. Under doctor's orders, cowboy Gullible Gus heads to Fibrock, a town of liars, to cure his gullibility. In Fibrock, he's told three stories (all a bit wordy), but he identifies only the final one--about a woman who does everything backwards--as "nothing but taradiddle." A final twist is mildly surprising and entertaining. Droll oil-crayon illustrations showcase the characters' antics.
