Whose Boat Is This Boat? Comments That Don’t Help in the Aftermath of a Hurricane is made entirely of quotations from President Donald Trump in the wake of Hurricane Florence. It is the first children's book that demonstrates what not to say after a natural disaster. On September 19, 2018, Donald Trump paid a visit to New Bern, North Carolina, one of the towns ravaged by Hurricane Florence. It was there he showed deep concern for a boat that washed ashore. "At least you got a nice boat out of the deal," said President Trump to hurricane victims.

Story4 out of 5 stars 7,011
On the surface, the Victorian age is one of propriety, industry, prudishness and piety. But scratch the surface and you’ll find scandal, sadism, sex, madness, malice and murder. Presented by Stephen Fry, this series delves deep into a period of time we think we know, to discover an altogether darker reality. The stories we’re told offer a different perspective on an era which underwent massive social change. As education, trade, technology and culture blossomed, why was there an undercurrent of the ‘forbidden’ festering beneath Victorian society?

In this wickedly funny update to the bedtime classic, listeners can encourage this very stable genius to bid a gentle goodnight to some of his favorite things, including his stuffed animal (what else but a Playboy bunny), his best friends from Russia, his Twitter feed, and his 12-pack of Diet Coke.

As if the stress of the annual Tiger Face holiday season wasn’t enough, the young sun-dweller Gustafer must face the nasty neighborhood bullies and overcome his fear of telling his father the awful truth: he doesn’t want to inherit the family raisin-butchering business. Despite help from his best friend Ellen and over-achieving big brother, Ben, Gustafer faces the ultimate crossroad when he sees a darker opportunity to control his own destiny on the Sun.

This story is cute, but let's be honest.
Cute story, but it could've been an hour of a monotone voice saying the word "chrysanthemum" over and over and I still would've bought it just knowing it's a giant middle finger to Mike Pence. 🐰

Thank you so much, John Oliver, for supporting such a worthy cause and charity (The Trevor Project). This was a great listen but I do agree with the other reviewers who said the print version is even better because of the pictures. We got one for our grandson and he loves it.

Lovely story of diversity
What made the experience of listening to A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo the most enjoyable?
Enjoyed the voices take on the characters. I could visualize each one being brave, fearful, or joyful.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Marlon Bundo. He saw inequality and helped everyone realize we are different, and that does not mean we need to be the same.
Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No. This is my first audiobook.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Stinkbugs are temporary.
Any additional comments?
Thank for for helping people realize and recorgnize that although we are different, we can relate to each other on a personal level.

I wasn't prepared for that!
I had heard about this book from a friend, they told me it was an empowering and motivating short story about a disadvatged couple and their struggles to be accepted, but I wasn't expecting to be taken on an emotional rollercoaster!
the story really gives you insight into the life of Marlon Bundo, the development of the characters really draws you in.
I give this book 5 hops! would hop again!

Buy this book and make Mike Pence cry
This book is not about Mike Pence "because he's not very interesting." This wonderful book introduces love, acceptance of differences, and the undeserved power of stinkbugs. Each book purchased results in a donation to the Trevor Project. "Because stinkbugs are temporary but love is forever. "

A lovely and positive story
I bought this book on audible as soon as I saw John Oliver talk about it on Last Week Tonight and I was not disappointed. The story is simple but beautiful with wonderful and positive messages about accepting everyone's differences, about love and about friendship. On top of this, Jim Parson's reading is great and all proceeds from both the print and audio versions support The Trevor Project and Aids United so I would recommend this story to anyone.

My best friends' kids loved it! And I did too!!!
I bought multiple hard copies and downloaded the audiobook. I listen to it on repeat when I want to cheer up and Jim Parsons does an amazing job in conveying each feeling.
I gave the hard copies to my best friends' kids as holiday gifts (they just started learning English) and they loved it! Their father was a tiny bit reluctant giving me side-eye, but who cares? He actually liked the audiobook and the hard copy in the end.
Thank you John Oliver for being an ally, thank you for the wonderful gesture and the charity part of the book and thank you to these kids that reminded me that hatred and racism are things out of the human nature, and we better stop teaching it to the purest of souls... kids!
It is a great gift 24/7/365, because it is as innocent as we used to be.

awesome book!
Really cute story about two bunnies in love and the stink bug who tried to stop them marrying. Buy it and some money goes to charity :-)

A perfect love story
A perfect bite-size love story. Short and sweet. And hopefully annoying to a certain vice President.

“You must go forth in the world, with passion, courage in your conviction, and most importantly be true to yourself.”
"It's just fake. It's fake. It's made-up stuff. It's disgraceful what happens, but that happens in the—that happens in the world of politics." —Trump, October 27, 2017
It may be fake but this is damn fine satire. Well worth the money and well worth the 7.5 minutes of your life.
As Trump said in the quote of him used for the title, go forth in the world and be yourself, no marter who you are.

A Nice Message
A short listen with excellent narration and the proceeds go to charity. What's not to like? Funny for adults and enjoyable for kids with an excellent message about love and acceptance.

An amazing story of Bunny-hopping
What better to start off your day with a beautiful story of Marlon and Wesley wishing that they could hop and hop forever? Heart-warming, funny, and unapologetically family-friendly. Come for the satire, stay for the story.

Marlon Bundo for President
...because stink bugs are temporary but love is forever. Five stars just for the idea to undercut the big bigot’s bunny book alone!

practically perfect in every way!
Beautiful narrative with enough overbite to engage mum and dad while not overreaching and becoming too preachy. my niece just said "so it's ok that I love wonder woman!?" and we had a great chat about love. Will remember that moment forever guys. thank you Jill and Marlon for a way to help me converse with my family x can not recommend highly enough!

Noice.
Really enjoyed the story and i certainly enjoy the fact that by purchasing this story, I am pissing off Mike Pence. The one person in this world that is even more far right than Tony Abbot.

Love will win
Great little story. Let’s hope that Mundo has a return book where he takes on the NRA
