Is this book really talking about his TRUNK???

I am not sure what to make of the book... the little boy wants a bigger you-know-what... TRUNK, but this books reminds me of the references to natural male enhancement that litter TV and email junk mail ads. Is there a bigger message? The mom has a beauty mark and wears too much make-up... when Otto complains he is too "teeny weenie" and says he wants one as big as daddy, the mom holds her hooves over her eyes and says "No, No, No!!!" Am I misinterpreting???
