Eleven Beloved Children's Books with Seriously Dubious Lessons


The list, care of Lemon Drop.

For example...

8) "Chocolate Fever"
This book about chocolate addiction teaches kids that if they're feeling under the weather and suddenly covered in mysterious spots, the best solution is to RUN AWAY FROM HOME. Dude, we watch "House." We know that eating one food uncontrollably can only be indicative of one thing: a dangerous medical condition called pica.

7) "Caps for Sale"
Never mind the fact that the Caps for Sale guy sleeps in trees and leaves his belongings on the ground. Did you see him wig the hell out at those monkeys? The Peddler needs some anger management, stat.

Hahaha! Those were so funny and sadly, so true! It sounds like they might post more of these later, so if they do, please include them! We'd love to read some more! :)
