Possible Books for Precocious Children



I'm always trying to come up with new things to procrastinate over. Today, my writer's bug got to me and I decided I needed to write some children's books for the precocious set. Here's a list of potential titles:

Alphabet Cassulet:
A is for acidophilus
B is for bactracious
C is for contrapuntal
D is for dipsomaniac
E is for existentialism

•    Everybody Poops: Academic Review of Fecal Humor in Early Educational Literature.
•    Goodnight Bassoon
