Bad Habits!
The central character of this cautionary tale is Lucretzia, an uncivilised little monster. Her disgusting habits include burping, farting and swearning, and she kicks and screams if she cannot get her own way. Her father, a mad scientist, invents a range of anti-Lucretzia devices which work efficiently for a while, but upon their removal, Lucretzia is wilder than ever. A cure is eventually perpetrated with help from a few friends, and the uncivilized little monster becomes a civilized little angel! Cole's exuberant cartoon style illustrations and in your face story will either delight or appal, according to taste.
