Description

Do spiders make you squirm? Stop turning down picnic invitations today and get a Super Spider Spotter. You'll never be surprised by one again!

Are you a messy eater? Buy a Crumbunny and watch it nibble up your problems!

Is it time to floss between your toes? Pick up some of Filbert's Footsie Floss and they'll be clean in no time!

Have you ever tried to walk a llama? It's tricky, but you too can do it with the Heavenly Heights Hitch and Harness!

Here, in this collection of uninvented inventions, are the answers to some of life's peculiar problems. Kids will wish they truly existed, especially the next time the dog comes home after having been sprayed by a skunk!
