Homosexual kids' book now best seller

A day after a children's book about a homosexual prince finding his true love received national media attention, the colorful hardback rose to a surprisingly high No. 38 on Amazon.com's list of best sellers.

The book, "King & King," gained media coverage Thursday when a North Carolina couple expressed their outrage after their first-grade daughter came home from her public-school library with the book.

As WorldNetDaily reported, the book chronicles the adventures of Prince Bertie, who waves off a bevy of eligible princesses before falling for Prince Lee, the Associated Press reported. The book ends with the two "marrying" and sharing a kiss.

"I was flabbergasted," parent Michael Hartsell of Wilmington, N.C., told the news service. "My child is not old enough to understand something like that, especially when it is not in our beliefs."

AP reported the 32-page book by Linda De Haan and Stern Nijland was published in March 2002 by Tricycle Press, the children's division of Ten Speed Press of Berkeley, Calif. A follow-up, "King & King & Family," was recently published. The publisher says the book is intended for readers age 6 and up.

It was unclear if a special-interest organization was buying up copies of the children's book or if individuals were purchasing it. As of yesterday, "King & King" was just edging out former Bush Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill's new book, "The Price of Loyalty," on the list and was hot on the heels of humorist Al Franken's "Lies and Lying Liars Who Tell Them."

The book stood at No. 350 on Barnes and Noble's sales list – still a respectable standing considering the tens of thousands of books the company sells.

Does this really surprise anyone? It's going to get much worse. The hippies aren't done experimenting on us yet.

Homeschool bump.

The book ends with the two "marrying" and sharing a kiss.

And their target audience is 6-year-olds...

[Jeff Chandler]

Shouldn't it be titled "Queen and Queen"?

[Knute]

We truly are a perverse and immoral nation, given over to a reprobate mind...

Wild dingos stole our culture! (I swear, wild dingos will steal anything . . .)

We homeschool as well and carefully review books our children checkout at the public library.

[ladylib]

Rosie O'Donnell and her "wife" probably bought up all the copies.

This is just plain sick..sick..sick!!

Shouldn't it be titled "Queer and Queer"?

O'Reilly did a segment on the trend toward placing homosexual books in grade schools. He asked the guest why the left was trying to sexualize young children. I know the answer, they want to influence the children before they are old enough to form a natural aversion to homosexuality. They know that all pre-pubescent children are closer to their own sex than the opposite sex. I don't know what the correct terminology is. Children are not asexual or homosexual, so much as pre-sexual, but this is a very formative time and if the Gay movement can brainwash them during this period, they will have converts for life.

Your answer, Eva, is right on target!

Just proof that the best seller lists are manipulated.

No self respecting mother or father would allow such a book anywhere near their six year old.

Homosexuals need to target children in order to arrest the normal development of boys and girls. They have to trap children in the that prepubesent development phase.

This is NOT a childrens book, this is an adult sex partner recruiting book.

Everyone needs to be concerned because this affects everyone, homeschoolers too.

Or Fitzpatrick and Fitzgerald?

[FourPeas]

I find I get strange looks from the librarians and other patrons when I sit down with my children and look over their books before we check them out, especially when I tell them they can't check out a particular one and then explain why.

You are exactly right. I'd only change one thing. There's nothing happy or joyful or gay about being homosexual.
