The thing about children’s books is that they are supposed to be ‘pure’. A PG 13 acceptable level of storytelling which will not scar children for the rest of their lives. A very kind grandmother bought her 6-year-old granddaughter a children’s book with the best of intentions of probably empowering her with the stories within. However, grandma didn’t realize that her sweet picture book was full of inappropriate content for her grandchild.
The kid’s mom, Tiffany, who goes by the Twitter handle @Tiffany1985B shared a picture of the hilarious incident on the micro-blogging website. The book titled If Animals Could Talk would appear like an innocent book from the cover but once the family opened up the book, they discovered it was not intended for children.
I’m dying. My mom bought this book for my 6 year old and I just called to ask if she had actually opened the book. She hadn’t. ____ pic.twitter.com/inYCEaZKpV

I couldn’t even talk when I called her. Here’s the first page: pic.twitter.com/gRvuNrxMCX

And people thought that the book had been fortunately screened before it reached the 6-year-old’s hands, but it wasn’t so:
Nope! 6 year old was reading with Dad and said “I don’t even know what this means” _______

Her husband was the first to sense trouble in the book:
Luckily my husband caught it on the first page…which he thought was weird for a kids book: pic.twitter.com/MrRCMyE6F8

And then ofcourse Twitterati had a ball after seeing the grotesque contents of the book meant for children which was full of sexual innuendos, swear words and what not:
You guys this book is amazing. pic.twitter.com/q0Bye8h4hQ

It’s kinda irresponsible the way the publishers didn’t put some kind of disclaimer on the book.

OMG please let this be available as an Audible book by Samuel L. Jackson.

And other people just wanted the book for themselves:
What kind of bookstore is your mom shopping at?

Forget the whole thing how such inappropriate content is circulating in the disguise of a kid’s storybook, Tiffany might have helped to increase the sales of the book as we speak:

So the next time your kid gets a present, sift through it before they may chance upon something which is way beyond their age because you can’t trust this world anywhere!
