The Secret Life of Walter Mitty - James Thurber
Mild-mannered Walter Mitty may seem like any other henpecked husband, but he is in fact
a bold, dangerous, and brilliant man. At least in his imagination.
Uncle Fred Flits By - P.G. Wodehouse
Pongo Twistelton is a young man with a big problem, his uncle Fred who always comes to visit
ready to shake off the quiet country life and get up to a rip-roaring time in the city.
