The Library Children’s Section Has the Darnedest Things

  1. Blue Lady says:

    >OMG! Hilarious! I can’t believe you actually got your hands on a copy. I would think the waiting list would compare to the newest Stephanie Meyers or Stephen King.

  2. >LOL…Lindsay, you kill me.Oops..er… 😉

  3. Akinoluna says:

    >She looks so excited to be reading it too!

  4. >Lindsay, you are too much! I adore Punky’s face in the pics!

  5. Nancy says:

    >She is too friggin’ cute.

  6. >I wouldn’t let her read this book after we took pictures with it and she got mad. She’s been asking for “the book with the Professor in it” ever since!

  7. >After crack whore make sure to get her that one on pimps. Those two, actually, should go hand in hand! Punk is just adorable.

  8. >PunkYI could have sworn I hit the Y

  9. Gertie says:

    >What. the. hell.

  10. coopersworld says:

    >I agree with whensheworeponytails, you really should look into get books on both crack whores and pimps at the same time. It will save time when discussing the finer points of both sides.

  11. >Oh dear God. Don’t let my hubby Homer see this. He’s a biologist and will offer to come and do the live demonstration . I can just hear him now: “But Honey, some kids just learn best by doing and humane euthanasia is really a lost art. Think of the career potential! She could go in to veterinary work or work on death row. It’ll open doors for her, doors I tell you!”

  12. Ruprecht says:

    >Oh. My. Gordness!Rupe’s friend FearandParentinginLasVegas offered this blog entry to Rupe … and he guffawed mightily!Spiffiness!…………………………. Ruprecht

  13. >At this age…it is all about the pictures, not the words. My kids love the Magic School Bus books. There are so many sidebars, speech bubbles, text, and other odd bits of information that you can hardly figure out what the story is actually about. My kids just love the whole mess of each page.I recall my oldest daughter loving a book called “The doll.” She would insist on checking it out each time. It was the story of a good doll and a bad doll. The good doll would spank the bad dolll….nice.

  14. Matriarch says:

    >As a children’s librarian, I laughed out loud. What a gorgeous girl you have.

  15. teristoddard says:

    >You crack me up! I’m recommending your blog to my online single parent peer support group and my family rights activist friends. They could all use a laugh. teri http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SINGLE-PARENTS-/http://www.sharedparentingworks.orghttp://www.jugsforjustice.org

  16. Clayjack says:

    >Oh, that’s not a geography book? I coulda swore Euthanasia was the northern territory of Asia.

  17. Quirkyloon says:

    >lol to both Lindsay and clayjack!Just too much funny!

  18. punxxi says:

    >Hmmmm, I better check to see if we have copies in our local library, after all it is legal here.heh heh, look out mil

  19. >at least she didn’t make you BUY it!

  20. Sugar says:

    >You are sick! But I think that’s your appeal… love the second picture where Punky’s all WOAH! Save that picture for the graduation montage, for sure.

  21. Rachel says:

    >Holy shit. That was funny.First Euthanasia, then crack whores, next up with be mommy is now daddy and daddy’s boyfriend is brother’s best friend. Right?

  22. >Ha! She looks so damn happy to be reading it too.We once got my cousin a copy of the book “No Dad Job” and then his dad lost his job the next day. I guess that wasn’t so much funny as horribly ironic foresight.

  23. >Um, or maybe it was “No Job Dad.” Proofreading is overrated.

  24. >I can’t believe….oh, wait, yes I can.

  25. >Best. Laugh. This. Week.Awesome.

  26. Laura says:

    >ROFL!finally there is another mother out there who is brave enough to put it out there that she is ill-equipped to home school…although i do believe every child out there should learn as much about crack whores as they possibly can.thanks for the great laugh tonite. i needed it.

  27. Darth Doc says:

    >A book about little chinese kids. How appropriate to read during the Bejing Olympics.

  28. Zip n Tizzy says:

    >I love the princess looking on over her shoulder. You are too funny!

  29. >Holy. Crap.Steal that book. Keep it on your coffee table forever.

  30. Jerri Ann says:

    >Oh my god, she is freakin’ adorable

  31. Anonymous says:

    >sick, sick, sick bookI have seen healthy animals euthanized because the owner didn’t want to take care of them anymore. They didn’t have the descency to give the animal up to another family. Disturbing. These last resort options can be abused.

  32. Dana says:

    >Quite a treasure you have there. I’ll have to see what sort of educational books are available at our library.Good luck with the little one and her “professor.”

  33. Scary Mommy says:

    >OK, I just found you and you are fucking hilarious. You had me with you tag line. I am in love.

  34. >You should check out this book, too:http://www.amazon.com/Visiting-Day-Jacqueline-Woodson/dp/0590400053 It’s about a little girl going to visit her father… in jail. And I quote: “the bus pulls up in front of a big old building where, as Grandma puts it, Daddy is doing a little time.”

  35. Carolyn Vowell Williams says:

    Hilarious Post! This could be the beginning of a series of books you find in the children’s library! Great photos!
