presents or books

librarian did not know whether to give presents or books by the dozen
why not give some presents and books? asked her cousin
This made sense, so she began to make lists and pile presents about.
She spent two months and nine days sorting them all out.

This made me smile. I like the cousin-dozen rhyme, and I like the image of a librarian surrounded by such an impossible quantity of organisation. :)
