What normal dad could stomach reading such a book to a kid?

I've probably got a few relatives on the list. We've gotten some strange books for the kids in the past.

We actually pre-read all children's books now. We got some that went beyond the silly stuff here, and were down right offensive (e.g., promoting pagan religions when the family is more than aware we are Christian). If it doesn't pass muster it disappears before present opening is even finished. I suspect my family has noticed this pre screening, as they were meant to. The books are getting less offensive every year, fortunately. One year one of the kids wanted one of the books read to her, and was dissappointed it couldn't be found. ;-)

Two excellent questions. Most of the people I have known to be vegetarians have been young women.
People like the ones in my town. Volvo. Greenpeace. Smug Arrogance. Maxed out Credit cards and a No Interest Mortgage, with a paper-shuffling Widow-Fleecing job, and a wife they will discard on her fortieth birthday, read the script and bought it, and hates his life enough to vote Democrat.
