Well, it is published now, and just as funny as I expected, and today I came across this teacher guide from Walker Books Australia with ideas to extend it in the classroom - and there is a cute printable postcard at the end. http://www.walkerbooks.com.au/statics/dyn/1283737199726/Its-a-Book-Classroom-Ideas.pdf
(This is the Teacher site at Walker Books http://www.walkerbooks.com.au/Teachers/Classroom-Ideas )
but best of all, visit Lane Smith's website http://www.lanesmithbooks.com/Home.html

"A site for all your reading disorders. Looking for books about teddy bears or rainbows or feelings? You’re at the wrong place. Here we celebrate the offbeat, the abstract, the unusual, the surreal, the macabre, the inappropriate, the subversive and the funky."
