    • Print version of the 1939 cartoon film "Scrambled Eggs", with some simplifications.
    • The book is credited only to "Elaine and Willy Pogany", but is known to have been written by Elaine and illustrated by Willy. (See the "Scrambled Eggs" link.)

The birds' nests are drawn in a style very much like traditional Hungarian Easter eggs, very likely reflecting Willy Pogany's Hungarian heritage.
