Description and Table of Contents

Description

In the title story of this collection, an offbeat crammer teacher recounts a story of a princess who is betrothed to a dog as a reward for licking her bottom clean, only to have her own life turned upside down by the appearance of a dog-like man with a predilection for the same part of her anatomy.
