Kittens, Puppies and Ponies, Andy Griffiths , single work short story children's

'Andy writes a story of Kittens, Puppies and Ponies about the three playing and having a peaceful time in their town in a short story competition, assuming that this was the judges' demand. Since it fails, Andy mixes it up by making it dreadful and evil. Doing this causes Lisa to be amazed by Andy's writing. However since Lisa was crying about it, it gave the impression it was a bad thing so he blamed it on Danny. Eventually the story still didn't win, instead Danny was credited for being runner-up in the school's competition of literature.' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_Crazy!)

Mudmen, Andy Griffiths , single work short story children's

'Locked out of his house, Andy is nude since the shower towel wrapped around him is taken off by Sooty. Dad sees Andy naked so he tells him to get the clothes. Andy can't open the door after using a special lock on the door. Since both don't have the key to get inside, the two ponder on what to do to get clothes. Knowing Jen and Mum [Mom] are in Mildura to visit their Aunt, Andy slips accidentally on the backyard mud and falls, and the whole back is covered in mud and this brings him an idea. He gets mud on him and tells Dad too. They go through backyards to Dad's work area where they keep overalls in the shed. When they get there, Andy opens the window to get them since the door is locked. It then starts to rain to then they are naked. After it rains Mr. and Mrs. Bainbridge (Dad's boss and his wife) come up in the driveway they see the two on each other trying to break into the shed. As a result, Mr. Bainbridge fires Dad.' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_Crazy!)
