What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

From the authors of the breakout bestseller All My Friends Are Dead (more than 175,000 copies sold) and in the humorous vein of Go the F**k to Sleep, comes a laugh out loud collection of bad advice that turns the children’s alphabet book on its head. In this funny book for teens and adults alike, adorable illustrated characters lead readers down a path of poor decision making and alphabetical, rhyming couplets offer terrible life lessons in which O is for opening things with your teeth, F is for setting Daddy’s wallet on fire, and R is for Raccoon (but definitely not for rabies). With plenty of playfully disastrous choices lurking around every corner, this compendium of black humor may be terrible for actual children, but it’s perfect for the common senseless child in all adults.
