How many fucking books are there? I had to read "That's not my truck" last week. "That's not my truck. It's sides are to ridgey". WTF! £5.99 for 5 pictures of things with fun fur or something on them? They're taking the piss! "That's not my hamster". Seriously! Where's the plot?!

Coming soon:

That's not my poo. It's sides are too glittery.
That's not my poo. It's top is too floaty.
That's my poo. It's tail end is so sweetcorny!

£5.99. Angry

My favourite one is "That's Not My Penguin". Which ends with the immortal lines, "That's my penguin, its baby is so fluffy".

You distinguish your penguin by recognising its offspring? Does your penguin not have a personality and appearance of its very own?!

...probably done by some terrified child trying to avoid being posessed by the EVIL. SOUL-STEALING. BUNNY!

Didactylos - I will take heart in the fact that our sons can share in their group sessions, safe in the knowledge their not the only ones Grin

Can I wholeheartedly recommend "Where's my Cow?" by Terry Pratchett to everyone who has ever read a 'That's not my...' book and despaired.

It started life as a joke in one of TP's novels, Vimes has to be home to read the book every night to his little boy, and now it is a real, proper book with great illustrations which appear to feature Pete Postlethwaite doing hippo impersonations.

hackmum the ninky nonk/ pinky ponk paradox is legendary Grin How small they are! Look at them compared with the characters... but wait! The characters can Ride In Them!! All of a sudden they are big enough... woo...

We have applied the "that's not my" philosophy to Star Wars. "These aren't the droids you're looking for... their joints are almost frozen". Smile

piprabbit, that so is Pete Postlethwaite in That's not my cow! Top book, but did lead to DD2 saying 'buggrit!' at the tender age of 6 Blush

Buggrit! Millennium hand and shrimp!
We're reading "Thud!" As a bedtime story, I love the "that's not my cow" references, especially "It goes Hruuugh, it is a Hippopotamus"

We do a Hyacinth Bucket pronunciation for buggrit - sort of "Bug Write". It's less embarrassing in public, but nowhere near as satisfying.
