Status Updates From Mr. Tickle

So, if you are in any way ticklish, beware of Mr Tickle and those extraordinarily long arms of his.
Just think. Perhaps he's somewhere about at this very moment while you're reading this book.

He reached out one of his extraordinarily long arms, opened the bedroom door, reached down the stairs, opened the kitchen door, reached into the kitchen cupboard, opened the biscuit tin, took out a biscuit, brought it back upstairs, in through the bedroom door, and back to Mr Tickle in bed.
As you can see, it's very useful indeed having arms as long as Mr Tickle's.

It was a warm, sunny morning.
In his small house at the other side of the woods, Mr Tickle was asleep.
You didn't know that there was such a thing as a Tickle, did you?
Well, there is!
Tickles are small and round, and they have arms that stretch and stretch and stretch.
Extraordinarily long arms!

"Slow down, Daddy," said the little boy. "Your long legs are too good at walking."
The father slowed down and then a thought came to him. If long legs were good for walking then what would be good for tickling?
Of course, long arms!
Extraordinarily long arms.

Once upon a time...
there was a little boy who asked his father a question. An impossible question.
"Daddy, what does a tickle look like?"
The little boy's father scratched his head. "That's a very good question," he said.

I finished the book. The genre is fiction it’s fiction because the characters arms are so long he can tickle people from a mile away.
