Earlier today, the hashtag #lessinterestingbooks took off on Twitter, becoming a trending topic nationally. (@randomhousekids even got in on the action, offering several twists on their own books, including The Sisterhood of the Traveling Census Workers and The Penderwicks at the Grocery Store). As of press time, it's still trending, as is a (comparatively unfunny) #moreinterestingbooks hashtag. Here are some of the better children’s book-related tweets—with a few classics thrown in for good measure.
