The problem is, the tome has a couple of pages that might be, erm, problematic in an elementary school setting. And since I Am A Pole looks like a perfectly innocent kids book, Ripa told him to go ahead. Apparently, her 9-year-old son Joaquin, who has dyslexia, asked if he could take the book to school with him the next day for the teacher to read aloud to the class. "I have a bone to pick with you about a book you sold on our show," Ripa began, referring to Colbert's 2012 appearance on Live! to promote the book. But that's just what happened with Kelly Ripa's young son Joaquin, she told Colbert on The Late Show Wednesday night. When Stephen Colbert penned his children's book spoof, I Am A Pole (And So Can You!), in 2012, he probably wasn't envisioning young kids toting it in their backpacks to school.
