Joy Behar and her SheetzuCacaPoopoo

It seems to be rather en vogue for celebrities to write children’s books. Madonna, Gloria Estefan, and John Lithgow have all had a hand in creating literature for kids. The View host Joy Behar also has a children’s book out, called SheetzuCacaPoopoo: My Kind of Dog. The book is about a dog called Max, who is a mixture of Shih Tzu, cocker spaniel, and poodle, hence the silly name. The book is beautifully illustrated by Gene Barretta. In the book, Max goes to the park and, at first, the purebred dogs don’t want anything to do with his and his “mutt” friends. The story teaches a common lesson of children’s books: just because someone is different than you, doesn’t mean that you cannot be friends. I am certainly no expert on children’s literature, but this book has a cute story and is worth borrowing from the library, especially if your kids like dogs, or if you have a mixed breed dog yourself.

If you would like to read more about children’s books, there is a great blog on the 451 press network called Tiny Treasury. Kelly does a wonderful job of reviewing children’s books and keeping you updated on publishing news. My favorite part of her blog is called the “Friday Fifteen.” Every Friday she interviews a new children’s book author! If you want an expert opinion kids books, check out her site.

    I have serious issues with celebrities that think that can do other things just because they’re a celebrity.

    I haven’t read Joy Behar’s book, and I do love her, but why can’t she write a comedic adult book instead of a children’s book?!

  2. Anne-Marie Says:

    Tiny Treasury is wonderful - great that you highlighted the blog. But celebrity children’s books. Even though I think Joy is a hoot, I can’t stand these type of books (hello, Jamie Lee Curtis). They’re usually awful and unfortunately taking away the chance of some unknown children’s book author to get published.
