This diaper-changing confessional genre--A Million Little Peepees--is of a piece with a trend in niched America: alternative media for parents. Alt-rockers They Might Be Giants, Lisa Loeb and the Del Fuegos' Dan Zanes make CDs for their aging fans' tots. The Rockabye Baby!

I can't help thinking of Dan Brown, author of The Da Vinci Code, and, indeed, Seracini is the only real-life character mentioned in the book, as the man who "unveiled the unsettling truth" about Leonardo. Seracini has devoted 30 years to the task, interpreting ancient diaries and city records to try to locate the spot...
