There was a young man named Tom Alley, who enjoyed going on picnics on overcast days, moonbathing on his terrace, and falling asleep upside down, hanging from a pole he had installed for that purpose...However not everything goes smoothly for Tom who, being from out of town, never heard the refrain, If you pass by a thing in the shape of a bone, listen well: It is better to leave it alone.Half prose, half poetry, this funny and thrilling story tells the adventure of the fearless and stubborn Tom and his meeting with the legendary Bone Collector.For children ages 7 to 11 (and for grown ups too... if they dare).Old as the wind that roams the earthWhistling outside on winter nights, Cracking the twigs, trudging the roads, Making one miss the morning light, There's one that comes and goes aloneGroping and turning every stone.Clickety-Clickety, Clickety-Clack!The Bone Collector performs his task.Clickety-Clickety, Clickety-Clack!What's that about?
