No We

Madeleine started work on a new book yesterday.

The title?:

JULIA: Were you trying to spell "Now," Madeleine?
MADELEINE: Uh, no, uh, Julia.  It's called "No We."
JULIA: Oh.  Well, Madeleine, just so you know: when you're writing TWO words, you're supposed to leave a SPACE in between them.

You're also supposed to have a title that makes some sort of lingustic sense, but whatevs.


Pg. 1:
"NO"

Just a typical drawing by an innocent five-year-old, right?  With the broken-necked corpse hanging upside down in a torture chamber while her scarecrow buddy stares in shock at her limp ragdoll body.  NO.



Pg. 2:
Wow, Marie Antoinette sure looks delighted with the giant, jewel-encrusted phallus that's hanging from the ceiling.  Not sure what she's going to do with the bloated three-fingered hand on an amputated arm off in the corner though. 

Good thing the text clears everything up for us: "MADELEINE WE NO ON POT HOT THE."

Totally get it now.
