Goodnight Bush is Funny

Even book people find Goodnight Bush funny. I liked the epilogue in which the authors revealed that Goodnight Moon and The Hungry Caterpillar were listed at Bush's favorite childhood stories.
Bush himself, while campaigning, referred to Goodnight Moon as one of his childhood favorites (along with Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar, which was not actually published until one year after Bush graduated from college; the president’s infancy was clearly an extended one.)
