Adversarial male character from a children’s book of the 1950’s or 60’s. Maybe from Dr. Seuss? Hmmm…

[Knowed_Out]

Would a Dr. Seuss piece be considered a short story? Maybe it’s from something similar to Wrinkle in Time? Stumped for now…

[Prof.Pepperwinkle]

I’m not coming up with any Dr. Seuss characters that start with a Z anyway.

[Prof.Pepperwinkle]

Still without a clue.
