Published in 2009, the stories are described as being strange,[1] gently absurb, wry, and dark whimsy.[2] HumorWhile the stories contain dark humor the underlying themes play off of social awkwardness and individuality, and remind the reader to not take life to seriously. Richards introduces Simon Snootle who falls into his parents well with the neighborhood cats: He is not aware of any tragedy of the situation, but rather makes the best of it, knowing that eventually more things will fall in as he did.[3] He also writes of a boy named Boil who hides in a school bus cushion to be more like his pet earwig, Peter Puddlestick who has a life changing moment when he happens upon a dead bird, a shrub that enjoys stealing hats and hairpieces, and Mr. Slowbug whose slow demeanor causes him to become a fashion accessory.[4][5] IllustrationRichards ink and graphite illustration style is considered reminiscent of Edward Gorey and Tim Burton.[6] Table of Contents
EditionsIn 2009, Richards crafted the first edition of the book by hand using black faux leather for the hardback cover, and hand sewn linen pages.[7] The cover was foiled stamped with a cat logo designed by Richards.[8] The second edition was also handmade by the author but the cover included a primarily yellow illustration of Simon Snootle in the well with the cats and a hose lowering down into it. Both of these editions were numbered and signed by the author and are collectible.[9][10] In 2016, Simon Snootle and Other Small Stories was released in paperback with a cover emphasizing the various stories as a whole featuring Ms. Shellquick, Simon Snootle and the child named Boil with his earwig.[11] AudiobookJason Shepherd narrated the audiobook with a special introduction by Jay & Jaywest, and Tae Sung Jie.[12]References{{Portal|Children's literature}}1. ^{{cite web|url=http://booksoupbookstore.blogspot.com/2009/08/simon-snootle-and-other-small-stories.html |title=Book Soup: Simon Snootle and OTHER small stories |publisher=Booksoupbookstore.blogspot.com |date=2009-08-04 |accessdate=2018-02-15}} {{Lorin Morgan-Richards}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Simon Snootle and Other Small Stories}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thebookbag.co.uk/reviews/index.php?title=Simon_Snootle_and_Other_Small_Stories_by_Lorin_Morgan-Richards |title=Simon Snootle and Other Small Stories by Lorin Morgan-Richards - TheBookbag.co.uk book review |publisher=Thebookbag.co.uk |date=2014-12-13 |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books/about/Simon_Snootle_and_OTHER_Small_Stories.html?id=QA1SPgAACAAJ |title=Simon Snootle and OTHER Small Stories - Google Books |publisher=Books.google.com |date= |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.frommybookshelf.com/2009/10/ |title=October 2009 |publisher=from my bookshelf |date= |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 5. ^{{cite web|last=Book |first=Bergers |url=https://bergersbookreviews.com/2010/05/22/simon-snootle-and-other-small-stories/ |title=Simon Snootle and Other Small Stories « Bergers Book Reviews |publisher=Bergersbookreviews.com |date=2010-05-22 |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 6. ^{{cite web|author=by thebellefromhell |url=http://www.dreadcentral.com/reviews/15417/simon-snootle-and-other-small-stories-book/ |title=Simon Snootle and Other Small Stories (Book) |publisher=Dread Central |date=2010-01-27 |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://issuu.com/jamesmichaelmcdonough/docs/irish_a_e_for_digital/12 |title=Irish Arts & Entertainment July Digital Edition by Irish Arts & Entertainment |publisher=issuu |date=2014-07-03 |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://witchesbrewpress.wordpress.com/tag/mocca-art-fest-2010/ |title=MOCCA Art Fest 2010 | WitchesBrewPress's Blog |publisher=Witchesbrewpress.wordpress.com |date= |accessdate=2018-02-15}} 9. ^{{cite web|last=Jahier |first=Sarah E. |url=http://fatallyyoursreviews.blogspot.com/2009/11/book-review-simon-snootle-and-other.html |title=Fatally Yours' Horror Reviews: Book Review: Simon Snootle and Other Small Stories by Lorin Morgan-Richards |publisher=Fatallyyoursreviews.blogspot.com |date=2009-11-12 |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 10. ^{{cite web|author=wed_mourningAugust 4th, 2009 |url=https://wed-mourning.livejournal.com/171725.html |title="Simon Snootle and OTHER small stories" - Wednesday Mourning |publisher=Wed-mourning.livejournal.com |date=2009-08-04 |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 11. ^{{cite web|last=Morgan |first=Lorin |url=https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/simon-snootle-and-other-small-stories-lorin-morgan-richards/1016423166 |title=Simon Snootle and Other Small Stories by Lorin Morgan-Richards, Paperback | Barnes & Noble® |publisher=Barnesandnoble.com |date=2016-02-16 |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 12. ^{{cite web|author=36 mins |url=https://www.audible.com/pd/Kids/Simon-Snootle-and-Other-Small-Stories-Audiobook/B071K74FCN |title=Listen to Simon Snootle and Other Small Stories - Audiobook |publisher=Audible.com |date= |accessdate=2017-09-13}} 5 : Comedy books|2009 non-fiction books|2009 children's books|American picture books|Black comedy books |
