t.o.w. the lizard and the boy

An unpublished Han Christian Anderson epic classic.

A long long time ago, when reptiles and humans ruled the lands hand in hand, lived a young boy. Destined to do many great things for humankind and equipped with the ability to throw with precision, his name was Babo. Unlike all his fellow humans, Babo detested reptiles, especially lizards. While the rest would drink and make merry with the slimey reptilians, Babo would hide in the toilet, determined never to come face to face with a lizard.

One fine day, Babo was minding his own business in the toilet when he suddenly saw a lizard perched on the wall. With immense trepidation, Babo leaped into the shower area in hope that the thin banana leaves would provide extra protection against the evil sinister lizard. Trapped in the shower area, Babo soon got bored and decided to take a bath. After he finished, he felt cold as the night breeze pricked his tender skin. Suddenly, the wind howled and the lizard dropped to the ground! Thinking that the reptile was now dead, Babo decided to venture out of the shower area. However, the moment his feet came into contact with the moist ground, the lizard sprang to life and scurried into a corner. With the piercing cold and his extremem bare-nakedness as motivation, Babo was now determined to face his fights like a true scaredy-cat. He grabbed some banana leaves and balled it up. With his ability to throw without missing, he aimed the banana ball or Baba at the corner and flung. Babo connects! Babo hurried out of the toilet to get tools to remove the deadly peice of dung from his haven, the toilet. When he came back with his trusty stick, he pryed the Baba from the corner and to his greatest amazement, the lizard was gone! For fear of his very existence, Babo could do nothing but drop his weapon and flee into the dark night.

Moral of the Story : It is always good to face your fears because when you finally do, your fears will disappear magically.

The End.

A very touching story indeed. Whye did the publishers not follow up with it?
