Gertrude<br /> is Gertrude<br > <b>is Gertrude</b><br /> <b><big>is Gertrude.</big></b> <P> And Alice is Alice. <P> And Gertrude and Alice are Gertrude and Alice. <P> And you are welcome to join them for tea. But beware, for there you will find a bear in a chair, just barely scary. And here is a beard with a man attached to it. And then, of course, some words might appear, uninvited , but delighted in spite of their lightbulbs. But, but, but, but - that doesn't make any sense! Yes! <P> In a story inspired by the oh-so-modern groundbreaking writing of Gertrude herself, not a lot makes sense. Even so, the oh-so-popular author Jonah Winter, and the ever-so-popular illustrator Calef Brown, and the <I>most</i> popular poodle of all time, Basket, invite you to enter the whimsical world of Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas.
