This Week in Weird: Baby's 1st Plastic Surgery Book

Sunday April 27, 2008
My Beautiful Mommy

See Dick run. See Jane run to the plastic surgeon. Run, Jane, run!

My Beautiful Mommy (Big Tent Books) goes where no other children's book has yet to go. It explains to little tykes why mommy is getting a nose job and tummy tuck. As you may have guessed, the author, Dr. Michael Salzhauer, is a plastic surgeon.

As the book's central character -- a cute, teddy bear-clutching little girl -- wonders what's going on, her mom sets her heart at ease:

“You see, as I got older, my body stretched and I couldn’t fit into my clothes anymore," mom says. "Dr. Michael is going to fix that and make me feel better.”

Here's a look at some of the week's top weird news:
