It is always nice to know that kids are into reading books. Instead of burying their tiny heads in mobile phones or tablets, seeing them flipping pages of a children’s book is much more preferable.
However, not all children’s books are actually good for children to read!
Yup, you’ve read it right. There are books that are too disturbing for little kiddos to delve into and parents should really be aware of these.
Read on to find more than 30 books that are too unsettling for kids to read. You will be appalled by the fact that these books were actually meant to be read by children!
1) Bones Against Bones
Hmmm….. where do we start. I mean, why couldn’t they show this diagram side-by-side. Or a split-screen deal? This looks like beastality instead of a comparison of bones between two species.
There are several things wrong with this here. First is that it appears that this boy spent an unclothed night with a sheep. The second thing wrong with this is that it’s telling people they should put themselves in awkward positions in order to avoid being lonely. That can’t be healthy.
This is a line from an Amelia Bedelia book. It actually makes sense when you read the whole page. But someone decided to zero in on this part, put it out of context, and sexualize it.
This excerpt is from a book called “That’s Disgusting.” This page is about fingering your cat’s butthole. Yup, that’s disgusting and something we probably didn’t need to teach kids not to do. Have you ever had to tell a kid not to touch your cat’s butthole? Maybe, but I’d imagine a cat would attack the child before this went too far. Look at the huge smile on this kid’s face in the drawing… too far.
Should we be teaching kids to tell each other to “suck it”? They couldn’t have added a few extra words in there? Is he sucking on a banana? Why isn’t he just peeling it?
These are really getting upsetting and we’re only on #13. I appreciate the rhyming and Dick is another name for Richard. Lots of people went by the name Dick back in the day. But why does he have to be holding a piece of sausage?
These drawings don’t look weird on their own. But they become suspect when they are next to each other. It’s really Timon’s face that’s making it weird.
That is not a face that’s a butthole. I know a butthole when I see one. No wonder this kid doesn’t want to kiss Aunt Bea. Also, look at the disgusting creep to the left. What the freaking hell is going on here.
This is a scene from a “Pinnochio” coloring book. The part where Pinocchio and other boys are lured to Pleasure Island only to be turned into donkeys. This page looks real creepy by itself though.
At first glance, this doesn’t seem like anything inappropriate. Then you see the guy on the top deck all the way to the right. The “firespout” looks like a part of his anatomy. Are these things normally found on ships? Are these firefighting seamen?
When it comes to love you should never stop. But when it comes to physical contact you should. This lion might need a lesson in consent. This lioness looks grossed out.
I bet I can tell you what Harpo’s secret is. Is it about his extra close relationship with grandpa? This book is actually about a child learning about his grandfather’s Alzheimer’s.
This is a pretty strange way to teach children about the difference in anatomy between girls and boys. It can also be confusing. Girls do no pee out of their butts. Unless they eat bad Mexican food.
This horse is dead meat. Literally. I mean, this is probably what happens or has happened to a lot of horses but this could be traumatizing to some children.
You know kids and their beasts, always getting into trouble. This time they are making mischief in the bathtub. Maybe Lewis’ parents should stop watching TV and be aware that there’s a giant beast bathing with their son.
