what an imagination Alice has on her own grandmother

Betcha Dill’s brothers would be tickled to death to meet up with Grandma (and maybe Big Shirley too).

So Dill’s family isn’t just a kid story. It has a reputation around town too. Good stuff.

Dill’s Bros. would convert Big Shirley into a Bradley Fighting Vehicle!

That would be one cool Grandma.

Grandma, aka the Eggs-Terminator!

Dill has scary brothers, scarier brothers, and a scariest brother, presumably; we never actually meet them. But when we meet his father, finally, he seems very mild mannered.

I can almost remember having such an optimistic world view.

My mother makes great deviled eggs – I wouldn’t mind being on the receiving end of them!

Maybe it could be modified to shoot Polyfill…

Whenever Big Shirley is involved, Alice’s imagination goes into hyperdrive, Madeline. She has Warp Nine fantasies, at least!
