Are you ready to hear a story?

Oh you are, good.

This tail is about a momma's set with a very long tail, a longish tail by Michael Ryan.

In all the stories in all the world, there has rarely been a tale about a tail, but this

tail is different because the tail was different.

For this tail was attached to a momma's set and attached to the momma's set was a very

long tail.

The momma's set of this story was named Edward by his mother and Martin by his father,

as they can never agree on names and rather than confuse the poor creature, his parents

simply called him Edward.

Edward had a brother and sister, both of whom looked more or less the same, which is to

say that all their momma's set parts were of proper size and in the right locations.

But Edward was not like the rest of his family.

In fact he was quite unlike any other momma's set that it ever lived.

Edward had a long, very long, very, very long tail.

His tail was so long in fact that Edward rarely ventured far from home for fear of getting

it all tangled up.

So he remained helping with chores whilst his older brother, Alex Andrew, left home to

see the world.

As Edward grew older, his tail grew longer until it became so long and tattered and tangled

that it hardly resembled a tail at all, instead looked more like an enormous pile of

unravelled yarn.
