highly recommended

A brilliant parody of the children's classic Goodnight Moon, built around the coming end of the worst presidency ever.

Goodnight Bush: An Unauthorized Parody is a hilarious and poignant visual requiem for the Bush administration. In it we see a childlike George W. Bush tucked safely away in the confines of his own room with all of the toys he's willfully destroyed, abused, or defaced. Complete with a quiet Dick Cheney whispering "hush," this bedtime story lets us finally say goodnight to the disaster that was the last eight years.

Goodbye Bush

A friend of ours bought us this book, and what a wonderful gift it is! I have it on the coffee table - for everyone to read and ponder. For those who don't know or have forgotten Margaret Wise Brown's Goodnight Moon, I recommend keeping a copy of her book close by. I got mine from the public library.

What is the best part of this book? It's impossible to choose. The polar bear rug by the bedside table is high on my list, as is Cheney sitting in the rocking chair, wearing his crooked smile and bunny slippers. Every time I go through the book I find some new little detail that I missed before. Watch the scales balancing church and state on the mantelpiece. Watch the lines of fine powder on the bedside table. This is a book that must be read - as the mills of God grind - "slowly ... yet exceedingly small".

The two pages most appropriate for these days' news: "Goodnight bubble bursting in air"; "And goodnight piggy beyond repair."

Everyone should keep a copy of this book. Lest we forget....

Written just for Bush!

Finally a book written just for W, on a level which he will understand, so he can come to terms with what he has done to this country, and the world, without all those big words, and too much writey stuff! All the issues you'd want them to touch on, but still has that "sitting on Barbra's lap" feel to it, just for George! A MUST read if you've ever read Goodnight Moon to your kids!

hilarious parody of a childhood classic!

HILARIOUS parody of Goodnight Moon, if you dislike/disagree the current administration and want something to lighten the mood. Pay attention to the details! Had me laughing out loud - at work! (I work in a bookstore.) I definitely think the detailed drawings are my favorite part.

Brutally funny take on the Bush years

A dark comedic masterpiece to anyone intimately familiar with the original "Goodnight Moon" and deeply disturbed by the Bush legacy. Having read "Goodnight moon" literally hundreds of times to my children when they were young, every page hit a familiar, yet oddly discordant note. The same kind of surreal visual progression yet lulling cadence is used as in the original to great effect. Lots of small details to notice on subsequent readings. A sad story, but one that carries a positive message that the end of this long trying "day" in American history is nearly over. A book you'll likely either love or hate.
