Love the idea.

The Doubtful Guest by Edward Gorey. It's a whimsical picture book about a creature who shows up uninvited at a house and generally acts like my toddler. I first read it ~8 years ago when my wife-but-then-girlfriend introduced me to Gorey, and I've laughed every time I've read it since.

Here's a two minute reading of it.

I love Edward Gorey! When I was little my brother and I memorised "The Gashlycrumb Tinies" alphabet book by him (alternating letters) and would recite it to freak out my parents' friends....
