Editorial reviews

Product Description
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.

Goodnight Bush
This was funny, sad and true. I'm glad I got it when I did as I doubt these will be around much longer. The seller provided it as promised and well within the shipment window promised.

Excellent teaching tool!
My son loved this book as a baby, now 13 years later, we are reading it with a new perspective. When he was a baby, I used this book as a teaching tool, and now this parody teaches the unfortunate politics and policies of the Bush administration. The pictures are especially informative and loaded with meaning.

GOODNIGHT BUSH & CO.
Clever, funny and terrifying. Wonderful illustrations deserve long hard look to catch additional insights.

Good night Bush is Hello hilarious!
One of the funniest parodies I've seen in a long time. The detail on every page is very well done. If you are even just a little dissatisfied with the last 8 yrs, buy the book and brighten your day.

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.
