I’ve decided this might be my favourite children’s book. Top five at least. Ostensibly because it features a Basset hound as a medical professional…
You know its got to be good when the librarian has written this on the checkout… eh… tag… eh… thingy. (Seriously?!?!? Books can cause offence now? I wonder if Salman Rushdie gets a disclaimer like this)
It is a book filled with ageless wisdom… (like how to avoid reinfecting yourself with worms)
Personally I think thats great advice.
Putting a warning on a book is tantamount to guaranteeing more people will read it. I usually read Dr Dog in the closet…with a flashlight.

I hate the way everything comes with a warning these days. Especially warnings that offence might be taken. Drives me mad.

Especially California. They’re even labeling stuff outside of California stating that in California it’s a possible cause of cancer. Lol. Maybe it’s just being Californian that causes cancer. Glad my dad had the good sense to get us out of there when we were kids.

If anything the Bible should come with a warning. Yet it doesn’t. Especially Leviticus

Sage advice, indeed. I’m fairly positive 100% of the books I read could have a warning on them as well…..
