Pinocchio

Groupon had a fantastic special for a 5 pack of Disney Classics books for only $14.99.  So, of course, I ordered it.  Last night I was reading Liam Pinocchio. I had always heard that all Disney movies have some sort of phallic symbolism in the movies.  But, seeing the pedophilia in writing is a different story.  As I was reading this classic book to Liam, I felt like I was reading a story about Michael Jackson or all the other pedophiles out there.  

"Honest John and Gideon were meeting with the Coachman who liked to lure boys to Pleasure Island.  The Coachman promised Honest John and Gideon money if they would help him find some boys....Honest John convinced the puppet that he needed some rest and relaxation -- on Pleasure Island.  Honest John and Gideon led Pinocchio down the street.  They told him all about the wonders of Pleasure Island --games, toys, candy, rides...Pinocchio climbed aboard a stagecoach filled with boys.  The Coachman cracked his whip and off they went to Pleasure Island....The boys could be as naughty as they wanted on Pleasure Island. The coachman gave orders to his men, "Shut the doors and lock them tight!"

Maybe it is my career that makes me feel disgusted about this book, but seriously WTF?
