Story of Frog Belly Rat Bone
Author(s): Timothy Basil Ering
Once upon a time in a dull, grey, endless place called Cementland, there lived a very special boy who wishes to find a treasure. After much searching among piles of greasy ovens and wet, smelly socks, he spies a box filled with specks and a wrinkled note that says, "Put these wondrous riches in the earth and enjoy." Horrified to learn that thieves are after his treasure, the boy scours the junkyard and conjures a creature to stand guard - a scarecrow-like gardener with crooked bony arms, a giant belly, a jaunty crown and preternatural wisdom: Frog Belly Rat Bone, King and Protector of the Specks.
