Raising Sweetness

Ever since the kindhearted sheriff done adopted little Sweetness (and all them other precious orphans, too), things has been darn near perfect out in Possum Trot. Only problem is, the meals is just a mite too interestin’, what with the catfish chili and the pickle and banana pie. And the housekeepin’ is downright peculiar.

Ever so often, them young ‘uns start to wishin’ their sweet pa would go and get himself married. When a mysterious letter arrives one day, Sweetness figgers it might be the solution to all their problems—if only they can learn how to read it.  But don’t you worry your little head none.  She’s done it afore; she can do it again.  Leave it to Sweetness to save the day!
