Children's Literature FAILs
Looking through a Scholastic book catalog (yeah, that's how I roll), one partially-obscured title behind other advertised "wacky favorites," stuck out:
Farm Flu should be a big holiday seller, right? What parent can resist a charming tale of animals getting sick with flu and a child in close proximity?
In other news, according to CNN, little fans of a 13-sentence classic book called Where the Wild Things Are, remain unimpressed by the new movie of the same name. Hey four-year-olds, where's your appreciation for dark themes and lyrical cinematic journeys? Still, gotta say the article quotes a dad who complains his twenty-month-old was bored by it.
Dude, what are you doing bringing your baby to a movie? At that age they can concentrate on eating clay, and only for about ten minutes. Here's a better idea: Take that money and light your farts with it instead.
You're welcome.
