Book du Jour: M is for Metal


At last, a baby book made especially for the children of carnies, Dungeon Masters, and Gene Simmons' 3000 groupies. Billed as 'The loudest alphabet book on Earth,' I'm currently using it to re-teach my older brother (a former meth addict and mosh pit casualty) to read -- and it's working! When he's not licking the brightly colored pages, he's mumbling along to such catchy rhymes as:

Z is for Zeppelin,
we followed, they Led,
stairway goes to heaven,
then off to bed.
