"Children's" books

I'm getting really good at changing the words in the things presented to my children. In the "Foo Foo Rabbit" song, he merely gets "Bonked on the head" and not "Shot dead". And, what about the "I'll Love You Forever" book? The one where the Mommy rocks her baby boy and sings to him about loving him forever? Then the boy grows up and the old lady Mommy drives to his house in the middle of the night and climbs through his window to sing him the song? Eek! And finally the son holds his very elderly mother in his arms and sings to her? Wow. That one is hard to alter, and harder to explain to a traumatized child. Tonight I was reading "The Rainbow Fish", which is a preschool lesson in communism. What does it teach? That to have anything extra or special will render you friendless and the only way to be happy (and have friends) is to give away everything you have that makes you special. Who is writing this stuff?
