Putting the photos into my pix here was beyond me; it looks complicated even in your instructions and the summer heat dome has rendered me a Fan of Very Little Brain.

@bam2001: I knew I recognized it. No poop-dancing witches involved in this book.
@paraxosalpha: That's the cover I had, which has the benefit of being somewhat like the book. (hashtag bubble helmet)
I will tell his widow that other people are "enjoying" the covers. She's a firm believer in the "speaking the name keeps them alive" and she'll be happy.
