Embarassing Wetness

I opened just one piece of slush today, and what was at the very top of the cover letter?
"Within this 6,000 word picture book you will find the legend of the bed-wetting fairy..."
I am now trying so hard not to laugh that my eyes are actually watering. "Are you all right?" asks the editorial assistant.

"Six thousand word picture book," I manage to gasp.

  3. Seriously, I know this is years old but I about wet *myself* reading this entry. I'm not sure which I thought was funnier though, the 6k picture book or the subject matter. ;)
