Fans Pack Naperville Book Store for Weird Al Visit

Hundreds of 'Weird Al' Yankovic fans lined up to meet the musician for a special signing of his latest children's book Wednesday.

More than 300 fans of "Weird Al" Yankovic weaved through the aisles of Anderson's Bookshop in downtown Naperville Wednesday evening to meet the musician and parodist.

While "Weird Al" didn't perform an impromptu version of "Eat It," he did happily sign copies of his second children's book, pose for pictures and give out plenty of hugs.  

Yankovic's new book, titled My New Teacher and Me!is about a boy named Billy, whose imagination doesn't quite mesh with his new teacher's plans.
