"Ad hoc, had loc, and quid pro quo. So Little time, so much to know!"

I'm a huge Beatles Fan, and today when I was browsing the children's books at the library, I came across a real gem. There is a children's book based on the song and the 1968 movie "Yellow Submarine". Of course as soon as I saw it I knew I was bringing it home to read to the kids.

It's very interesting to say the least lol. There's a character named Mr. Boob...that of course got a few giggles from my 5 and 7 year old, ESPECIALLY when Paul calls him Mr. Booby lol. It wasn't until the middle of the book when I realized I was making a major faux pax when reading it to them...I wasn't reading in a British accent. So for the rest of book I was British. Okay, so I was really going between a Scottish and Australian accent, I'm no good at impressions!

I highly recommend it to any Beatles aficionado, it's cute and kitschy.
