Review
"Shannon Wheeler drew a book I wish I had thought of; that's the ultimate compliment I can offer in 140 characters! #buyit #wheelerisagenius" - Jack Ohman, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning
"A book of cartoons written by a living caricature and illustrated by one of the best cartoonists working. It’s like peanut butter and chocolate! Or maybe unregulated toxic waste and chocolate. In any case, it perfectly captures the grim absurdity of life in the darkest timeline." - Tom Tomorrow, creator of This Modern World
"An edifying distillation of the Orange One’s oeuvre, with pictures… [Wheeler] gives us reason to snicker rather than cry." - Kirkus Reviews
"Terrific." - Paste
