Dr. Seuss Meets the CPSIA
I suppose you have heard of the Consumer Product Safety Information Act, which has had all of us homeschool publishers tearing our hair out, making it apparent that no child's item could ever be sold again unless it had been mass-produced and fully tested for lead and phthalates.  No more second hand sales, and so on.  We have been given a bit of a reprieve for now.

Anyway, one of my homeschool publisher colleagues wrote a Dr. Seuss-style story about it: Heather Idoni with Jodi Whistler wrote The CPSIA Meets Dr. Seuss.  A sample:

Those dilly-dunk balls that tots spin on a string
are quite dangerous toys -- What a horrible thing!

We'll form a committee to draft legislation --
The Dilly-Dunk String Tot Protection Foundation.

Here's the link!
