More on That's Disgusting!

On the publisher's website, they describe the book thusly:

This irresistibly icky book will appeal to kids' love of all things nasty—while charming parents with its wit and energy. Adorable artwork on every spread accompanies simple text. Swallowing a worm, smelling a sock, playing in the cat litter....That's Disgusting!

"Adorable artwork on every spread..." Huh. To me, VIOLATING A CAT is not "Adorable!"

I am definitely planning to write and see what justification they have for marketing this to pre-schoolers. The contact info for the publisher is:
