Breaking Bad News With Baby Animals

Breaking Bad News With Baby Animals

Animal Radio
Studies have shown that if you put a baby animal next to bad news, the person will not react to the bad news, but will concentrate on the kitten or baby bunny wearing a bonnet.

So, are you afraid to tell your girlfriend that her butt looks fat? Do you need to explain to your nephew that dreams don’t come true? Why not let a cute, fuzzy bunny do it for you! It is very hard to tell someone that you’re sleeping with his wife, so let a photograph of a duckling sleeping on a teddy bear soften the blow. These 40 perforated postcards answer all of your cowardly prayers–you’ll finally be able to tell the truth without ever conquering your fear of confrontation. Let these adorable baby animals supply a silver lining to any bad situation and avoid, a long, tearful afternoon explaining why daddy’s never coming home.

Co-authors of Grandma’s Dead, Amanda McCall and Ben Schwartz feel they are doing a service to mankind. They don’t mean to be awful, but hope that this makes people’s lives easier and saves them time. After all, who has time these days to sit down and explain bad news to someone!

Amanda doesn’t like confrontations, and this all started about a year ago when she went home for the holidays. Her sister had just had a baby, and Amanda felt that the baby was the ugliest baby she had ever seen. Amanda felt she had to tell her sister, but couldn’t bear the thought of telling her to her face. So instead, she sent her sister a postcard. Her sister took it very well and believe it or not, they are still on speaking terms.
