The Case of the Curious Tree
Excerpt:
"In a purple world, full of purple things lived the Kuki Kakis. They bounced and danced, played and laughed under the purple sun shining over them. At night, the purple moon rose as the Kuki Kakis went to sleep. They dreamt purple dreams in their purple beds and woke to eat breakfasts of purple eggs and purple toast.
In this purple world, Kiki the Kuki Kaki walked to the Purple Forest every morning."
