Advice

The following story comes from my nephew (a kindergartner) in Michigan.

Last week was his 6th birthday, so he went to the store with his mom to pick out a book.  He loves horses, so he picked a book with horses on the front.  It also had Barbies on the front.  Yep.  A Barbie horse book.  For the 6 year old boy.

His mom says, "Hey buddy...you sure you want that book?"

"Yep.  That's the one."

"Ok, but...that book looks a little girly...don't you think?"

"Mom!  My librarian taught me - never judge a book by its cover."

Alright.  Barbie book it is.
