When a son asks to hear about when he was a small boy, his father tells him about the time when he was so small he could walk his pet ant on a leash, wear a thimble for a hat, and be carried around in his father's shirt pocket, in an imaginative bedtime tale with full-color illustrations. - Perseus PublishingWhen father puts young Henry to bed he always says "Dad, tell me about when I was small." His father complies, telling Henry how, when he was little, he used to be so tiny that he could take his pet ant out for a walk on a leash! What's more, he got his hair combed with a toothbrush and was such a little boy that he could even fit in his father's shirt pocket. Henry was so small that his father's original name for him, Hieronymous, wouldn't fit.
