A friend of mine told me that in the 1980s in the UK there was a wildly popular children's book that featured a talking penis. This can't be true, can it?

it could be true, yes.

i've never heard of it, mind.

x-post: fat willy's was a surf shack, wasn't it? :)

but aye, there was a cartoon book with a bloke who had a talking knob. i've got a mug at home with a picture of it. it certainly wasn't a kids' thing.

I have a vague memory of a cartoon series of a talking penis, but I doubt if it was aimed at children. I think it was done by the guy who later wrote "Toujours Provence".

I remember reading the book as a kid, it was quite funny, and not dirty at all.

It's Finnish name was "Herra Heijari", which translates to "Mr. Schlong".

Yes, that must be it, thanks. Although it looks pretty lame to me...

fat willy's surf shack. fucking hell. i went to the south west, in about 1992, and this was an eye-opener into the base mindset of some of my countrymen.
