Children are so vain and shallow (not to mention lacking in any and all imagination) that the only possible way they could enjoy literature is to have their own name and pronouns splattered through a book? /shakes head/

[covenmouse]

That's kind of my point--that this is creepy. XD The marketing sleeze is strong in this.

That's... horrible.

What the fuck happened to reading, I dunno, Anne of Green Gables and the Chronicles of Narnia and stuff when you're a teenager??

I think that passed when being intelligent was deemed "uncool"--oh wait.

And for $25 a book, I think it's safe to say most parents will pass on this one.

Can't help but think that a good thing in this case... I can't believe I'm at the point of disapproving of reading, but I can't bring myself to term this 'literature.'

There's a very broad difference between literature and mass-produced, mindless bullshit.

ALSO... By the ad, it looks like they're trying to encourage people to use copyrighted characters, and if that happens and they sell it, that's copyright infringement.
