Remy Charlip created this cool concept in his 1964 children's book, 'Unfortunately', which begins . . .

Fortunately one day, Ned got a letter that said, "Please Come to a Surprise Party." But unfortunately the party was in Florida and he was in New York. Fortunately, a friend loaned him an airplane. Unfortunately the motor exploded. Fortunately there was a parachute in the airplane. Unfortunately there was a hole in the parachute...
