The Little Scrotum That Could

 Today’s New York Times has a story about a children’s book that just won the Newberry Medal –probably the most important and prestigious award in children’s literature. The book is called The Higher Power of Lucky and it’s a charming tale for tots about a snake who bites a dog on the ballsack.Â

My favorite direct quote from the book?

“Scrotum…It sounded medical and secret, but also important.â€

It’s important to learn that early, kids! Man, I wish I had!

My cousin is in the children’s book field. Too bad she’s stuck publicizing crap like Harry Potter, and not genius stuff like The Snake & The Scrotum.
