The Mysteries of Harris Burkick (Chris Van Allsburg
Chris Van Allsburg came across the pictures of Harris Bur** through a friend, Peter Wenders. Apparently, Bur** presented the pictures with their titles and captions to Wenders in hopes that Wenders would be interested in purchasing the stories that accompanied the illustrations. Wenders was intrigued by the pictures and asked Bur** to submit the corresponding stories the next day. However, Wenders never heard from Harris Bur** again, so the "true" stories behind the pictures were never revealed.
