Top 25 weirdest and most inappropriate children's books of all time

I have stacks of children’s book, either because I loved them as a kid, bought them for my first two kids, or, as an illustrator, purchased them for the inspiring art.

And now, I’m restocking for our newborn son Aiden.

But once in awhile I’ll stumble across something that’ll just make me just scratch my head. As in, “What the f**k were they thinking?!” And since I also love to share, here are some highlights …for you!

Many are just plain crazy, a few have double entendres that might not have been intended, many suffer because innocent words have had a change of meaning over the years, or it could be I’m just snickering because I have a dirty mind.

There also might be a smidgen of sophisticated humor in the selections that follow, but most of the guffaws and titters will fall smack dab in the juvenile category.
“Titters”! Hee hee hee!

There are a lot of “funny” children’s book cover floating around the internet, but often they’ve just been photoshopped creations
(I’d love to believe that “My Big Book of Pretty Pussies” is real)

So, if I don’t actually have a physical copy in my hands, it won’t make the cut. As for it being “The Top 25,” keep checking back, I’m sure at some point I’ll be up to 100!
