Origin[]
Mr. Gunther was never seen, merely mentioned. He was a resident of the Valley of Bonbons in Merryland. He was a particular friend of the Candy Man, though rather brittle. One day, he fell down a hill and broke into seventeen pieces, so he was divided among the neighbors who loved him best and eaten for breakfast the next day.
