It hard to believe 8000 people bought Madonna's book for their kids.

I think that the small sales derive, not from her rock persona, but from the fact that (a) parents of the same children are already burned out from the recent Harry Potter frenzy, (b) kids are unaware of Madonna - perhaps even as a rock star (some kids are really too young for rock) - and certainly that she has a book out, so they're not bugging their parents about getting it.

And Madonna's next series of books will be aimed at the weekend gardener, starting with her first book, '101 Things You Can Do With A Ho'

Couldn't happen to a better slut. Too bad hillary's book did do the same.

I think about that many saw her last movie, and these were mainly critics bent on writing maliciously bad reviews.

Government funded libraries and schools buy whatever book the publishers send them.

It's not like their spending their own money or anything.

Eight thousand, eh? She needs to call the DNC offices as I understand a Mr. McAuliffe personally purchased one million eight hundred thousand copies of some other chick's book.

The publisher, Puffin, reports that Madonna's The English Rose, is "the fastest-selling children's picture book of all time." It sold more than ten thousand in just the UK in the first week, a mere 220 copies fewer than the latest Harry Potter did in its first week. It was released simultaneously in 100 countries, and in 30 languages. The leading London bookstore says Madonna's book "is selling incredibly well". It is the first of five projected children's books that Madonna plans.
