I cut my teeth on books like the McGuffy Reader. The Adventures of Dick and Jane were for the slow kids. But while I kind of leapfrogged most of the really little kids’ books, I made it a point to read to my daughter from the time she was born until the time she grew too old for me to entertain her with a bedtime story.
Today, kids’ books are increasingly politically-correct. And because so much of the publishing world leans left, increasingly politicized and polarized. Today, a trending topic on Twitter was #obamakidsbooks. Here are a selection of the better titles – ones that I hope and pray will never make it into print:
- One Fish, Two Fish, Your Fish is My Fish
- Fast and Furious George
- The Indian in the Cupbord is Elizabeth Warren
- Little Barack Scambo
- The Little Engine That Couldn’t Without Federal Assistance.
