I suppose the idea is that your b-day reading is a "bonus"!   
And, hopefully there are no contraditions.

I carry the Old Farmer's Almanac (Canadian edition) in my shop.   
I did not realize that there was another product called the  
Canadian Farmer's Almanac.  Very confusing.

I think the OFA uses the term "zodiac profiles" instead of  
horoscope.  I'll have to actually take a look inside the product  
that I sell!  <LOL>

Still in print. It's a popular rag.  Sure, it's littered with  
ads, but they manage to make many of those entertaining too.

I dunno..  some of the pages use really nasty words.  The books  
would seem a tad too mature for a 10-yr old.  Here are the  
tamest ones I could find in one particular popular edition:

This one is a favorite. I'd colour it myself and post it proudly  
on the wall:
