I'm looking for an illustrated children's collection of stories. The story I remember most vividly is that of a girl that always wears a ribbon around her neck (I think it was yellow), and eventually her husband removes it and her head falls off. \u00a0It is NOT from the book \"In a Dark, Dark Room.\" \u00a0The illustrations were simple black (or blue?) and white, with pops of color (kinda similar to Robert Bright's). \u00a0The book also had a story about a young man that only had a couple hairs on his chest, and he was trying to grow more to prove that he was brave (my memory of this plot line is pretty fuzzy though). \u00a0I borrowed it from the library as a child in the 90s (I was 5ish?), and it was pretty beat up then so maybe published significantly earlier? \u00a0I attribute this book to my lifelong irrational inability of wearing anything around my neck (necklaces, scarves, turtlenecks, etc.) and would love to prove that this book exists.<\/tt><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
