This Just In: Horses of the World Form D.A.R.E Group
Maybe you've already seen this, but I am reposting it here anyway in case you missed it. Why? Because it just made me laugh so hard I almost peed, sitting all alone here in the library. God, I love books.
Oh, and just in case you were wondering? I don't own a copy in my library; I checked already. But I will own one, just you wait and see. My particular favorites? Illustrations on pages 22 and 28. Check it.

Oh. My. Lord.
I have no words. Except, wait. Yes I do. Far too many words to narrow down to one succinct comment.
Thank you for sharing. Oh my.

If my name was Latawnya I would say "YES" to drugs.

OMG. The horses, and the warnings, and the "urban" sounding horse names???
That is the strangest gem I've ever seen.

One of my co-workers just sent me this email:
That is by far the worst “thing” I have ever read. Of course, I did read all of it so I guess I was hooked in. There are so many questions…
What’s up with her brother, Gregory?
Were her parents high when they named the sisters?
Was God happy to have been personally thanked and given some credit for this book?
What specific drinking games are favorites among horses?
Was the father’s friend that overdosed Latawyna’s real dad?

OMG...that was my horses name and I never knew he had a problem...parents/owners always the last to know.

Oh, and thanks to Beej and Amy for pointing this out to me- I must've missed it on boingboing the other day.

Oh dear God that was too funny.
The overdosing horse looks so peaceful. But I feel like he should've been sent to the glue factory.
I too want to know what drinking games horses play.

that was the most awesomely bad thing I've ever seen! The imgaes with the horses kicking back with bottles in the mouth is too good to be true.

Didn't you read the part about Daisy "slapping the drugs out of Latawnya's hoof"? Really, the horses make it seem so much cooler than humans.

That is the best thing EVER. When Daisy "slapped the drugs out of Latawnya's hoof"--bwah!
I have certainly learned a lesson today about drinking and doing drugs. Don't do it in front of your sisters, if they are not "naughty" horses--they will totally rat you out. ;)

lizgwiz- yeah, and then you totally have to make out with your dad, according to those pictures.

This is all kinds of awesome. I may have to link to this (giving you proper credit, of course) in the near future. I'm literally weeping from the laughter, and it is now my life's mission to procure a copy of this book.

I saw this at Ben's blog too, it's brilliant!!
7:58 AM
this is way too funny.
Maybe I should pass this book along to the barn manager where I keep my horse in NJ - you know - so she can educate them all on the horrible world of drugs.
You were missed last night!

Hee hee hee. I can't believe this was published in 1991. And did you notice that the author lives with 6 of 8 of her children? What happened to the other 2?
Latawnya. WTF kind of name is that?
