WASHINGTON (AP) -- Ten years later, it still takes a village.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is polishing up her most famous phrase as she edges closer to a presidential run. She writes in a new introduction to her book ``It Takes a Village'' that Sept. 11 and the Internet make her tome on child-rearing even more relevant today.

The 10th anniversary edition of the book goes on sale Dec. 12. An early copy was obtained by The Associated Press.

The new version of the book features a smiling Clinton surrounded by children. The New York senator did not appear on the cover of the 1996 book.

In the new introduction, the senator acknowledges the book's title provided plenty of comic opportunities for headline writers, adding that her favorite was ``It Takes a Village to Raise a Pig.''

The introduction by Clinton argues that the core points she made as First Lady are if anything more important now that the Internet and electronic devices like MP3 players have such large roles in children's lives.

To promote the new version, Clinton will appear at a bookstore in Manhattan's Lincoln Center on Monday, Dec. 18, and two days later at a bookstore in Westchester County. She will also make national television appearances that week on a morning show and a talk show promoting the book.
