All right, so who do we blame for the songs? . . .

A New York Post Page Six item yesterday quoted an anonymous source saying that Madonna‘s series of “Kabbalah-themed children’s books” were ghostwritten. Said the Post’s source, “All of Madonna’s books are written by the Kabbalah Center’s official ghostwriter, Eitan Yardeni. . . . Last summer, he flew to London to help Madonna write the last book, but she didn’t really do anything.” Madonna’s rep didn’t return calls from Page Six, but a rep for her publisher, Callaway Arts & Entertainment, did respond to a call from Publishers Weekly reporter Shannon Maughan for a PW Daily report. The Callaway rep called the Page Six report “completely untrue.”
