I sort of remember a review of that book...When the puppeteers were bored, they'd have the puppets doing...er...lewd acts...

My favorite show of the 50's was "Science Fiction Theater"...I still recall an episode where a mysterious stranger stayed overnight at a remote home...Mother & son had no electricity...Stranger told wild stories about a strange land...and left behind a suitcase with a duplex receptacle that the kid plugged his electric train set into...

Really...Would an alien with a cold fusion reactor put a *duplex* receptacle in his suitcase???
