About this listen

 In this humorous tale, the absurd consequences of letting frustration take over are vividly illustrated through the antics of a pompous man who, in a fit of rage, fires a shotgun at a pesky cat lounging on his fence – only to accidentally hit a man lurking in the bushes instead. What drove this man to such extremes? Who is the mysterious figure hiding nearby? And how can they both manage to sweep the entire debacle under the rug before the neighborhood starts to buzz with gossip? (Summary by Mark F. Smith)Copyright Kids Stories and Comedy
