September is National Literacy Month and while schools and reading clubs commemorate the event by encouraging children to read more books, parents are setting their sights on one particularly controversial literature.
The book, "Do you want to play with my balls?" released by Bum Bum Books, is admittedly an adult humor and entertainment book. But when Mediatakeout posted a video of a woman reading it on Facebook, some parents were not amused to learn that there's a book like this out there.
Worse, the video caption sparked further outrage from parents. It read: "DISTURBING VIDEO: This Is A REAL Children's Book . . . Being Sold To CHILDREN . . . Parents PLEASE Make Sure That Your SCHOOL Isn't Using This BOOK!! (Wow . . . They Are Really Trying To INDOCTRINATE Kids)."
First posted back in July, the video has since received over 10 million views and thousands of comments and shares.

Adult humor books that mock children's literature have been around for some time, but there are actual books released for kids that unintentionally have the most questionable titles or content. Some have even become best-sellers. Below are some of them:
1. Pooh's Touch and Feel Visit: A Pooh Texture Book (Winnie-the-Pooh)
2. Where Willy Went (The Big Story of the Little Sperm)
