Introduction
The story takes place in a whimsical, seemingly perfect town called Sherbet. The weather is simply lovely with it only snowing in the winter, and raining for precisely forty-five minutes in the summertime. Having supplied the reader a map, the narrator requests him/her to search for a street on it called Gumm. And on this street, four girls of about the same age live. Their names are Franny Muggs, Pru Gumm, Cat Lemonjello and Ivy Diamond.

Famous quotes containing the word introduction:
“We used chamber-pots a good deal.... My mother ... loved to repeat: “When did the queen reign over China?” This whimsical and harmless scatological pun was my first introduction to the wonderful world of verbal transformations, and also a first perception that a joke need not be funny to give pleasure.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“For the introduction of a new kind of music must be shunned as imperiling the whole state; since styles of music are never disturbed without affecting the most important political institutions.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
“Do you suppose I could buy back my introduction to you?”
—S.J. Perelman, U.S. screenwriter, Arthur Sheekman, Will Johnstone, and Norman Z. McLeod. Groucho Marx, Monkey Business, a wisecrack made to his fellow stowaway Chico Marx (1931)
