In this case, by "read" I meant "skimmed pretty thoroughly" while I processed it for library circulation. While it doesn't disappoint, it's not mind-blowing/eye-opening like An Inconvenient Truth. In fact, I already forgot most of the content. I just know I chuckled to myself a few times.

This book just didn't catch me. It tried really hard to be different and funny but I was mostly uninterested.

Doesn't quite hit the highs of the Colbert books and some of the comedy hasn't aged all that well, but most of it has

I felt this book had a harsh color palette (only using orange, black, and white for your illustrations is a bold move. One that I am not sure it quite paid off)

Additionally there were WAY TOO MANY WORDS on a page. This could not be done in a storytime and should it be attempted in a one on one sitting, I think a child would get bored.

Ultimately, I did not finish
