- IN: Lullaby Town (1992) Fiction, American
EPIGRAPH: There's a quaint little place they call Lullaby Town -
It's just back of those hills where the sunsets go down.
Its streets are of silver, its buildings of gold,
And its palaces dazzling things to behold.
There's a peddler who carries, strapped high on his back,
A bundle. Now, guess what he has in that pack.
No, he's not peddling james nor delectable creams.
Would you know what he's selling? Just wonderful dreams!
