I've recently been reading the stories of H.P. Lovecraft when I haven't been reading about teaching pronunciation to speakers of other languages. (Did you know that North American English has fourteen [or, depending on what you decide to count, fifteen] stressed vowel
phonemes, where many other languages [including most Romance languages] have only five to eight? This, then is what makes my job so difficult!) Anyways, I was very intrigued when I saw this on
BoingBoing:
That's right, a plush
Neconomicon for the little one in your life!
(Or for me!)The only way this could be cuter and more sinister is if it were my
Hello Kitty tarot cards.
Many people don't know this, but Necronomicon author
"The Mad Arab" Abdul Alhazred was also responsible for writing and illustrating
Everybody Poops. True story!

Have you seen My Little Cthulhu yet? Talk about cute!
Everybody Poops? Hello Kitty Tarot Cards? Insane! But fabulous!
"Insane! But Fabulous!"
Do you mind if I borrow that and use it as the title of my first book?
And My Little Cthulhu is almost TOO cute. It's hard to tremble before the unspeakable horror of the elder ones when they are that damn adorable!
You can have anything you want, hen.
The Cthulhu thingies freak me out. Cute, but freaky.
I want a boy for my birthday!
I wish I were your genie.
I wish I were a princess!
