swine flu/kid lit humor

damn, a mystery solved

I really, really hate the Arthur books. I haven't read one, I just hate them on general principle because the illustrations suck so bad. Why, you can't even tell what kind of animal he is supposed to be! Is it a bear? Or just some generic "animal" with glasses, for god's sake? So I was disappointed to accidentally read the back cover of one while checking it in... it says it's an aardvark!
Whew. I never would have known. And I wish I didn't know.
