"It's in the Book" is a recorded comic monologue, partly sung, partly an exhortation in the manner of a revivalist preacher on the subject of Little Bo-Peep. It was marketed as a pop song, and actually made the Billboard charts in 1952, reaching number one.

It was performed by Johnny Standley.

It is illegal to sell or broadcast the song on the radio in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
