Stephen Colbert Makes Fun Of Book Genres

Stephen Colbert's Maurice Sendak-inspired"I Am a Pole (And So Can You)," a new children's book parody about a personified pole finding its purpose in life, is expectedly topping sales charts, but not in the genres you'd assume.

The talk show host poked fun at The New York Times and Publisher's Weekly for placing his satire on lists such as Advice, How-to, Miscellaneous (New York Times) and Non-Fiction (Publisher's Weekly).

"A pole can't give you advice, it's pure fantasy," Colbert jested.
