More, more, more: A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo

The reviews are coming in for John Oliver's children's book, written by staff at Last Week Tonight. Congrats to all in this effort! 

"Sincerely delightful-full of the attentive details and poetic grace notes that distinguish good children’s books.”  –The New Yorker

“Above all, this is a sweet and funny book about of tolerance, friendship, and the one message even our youngest kids can grasp perhaps more easily than perhaps any other: Love is love. I know my own kids would love getting this for Easter.” –Cool Mom Picks

"A joy... Ignore the grumbling about Oliver turning the bunny America deserves into a metaphor for partisan politics, because the book is a 40-page triumph." –Esquire

"This cute, funny, and inclusive picture book has a positive message about celebrating who you are and loving whom you want." –Common Sense Media
