Reviews
"This is a spectacular children's book, one that stresses the most important lessons of love, democracy and acceptance...I won't wreck the ending, but I will say there is good reason to make this a bestseller. Any children's book that can move me to mist up because, ultimately, love does conquer all, is a book worth sharing." -- The Star-Ledger -- -, "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, "Bedtime stories are great for putting kids to sleep, but in our house, we prefer stories like A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo that help us stay woke." -Misha Collins, Actor, Activist and Parent, "Parents who want kids to know love is love will feel good helping their kids build values, but they're also handing them a funny, thoughtful, well-written, and well-illustrated story." -Fatherly-- -, "Every once in awhile, you come across a book that is not only well-written, but that had the potential to be revolutionary. A Day In The Life of Marlon Bundo is one of those books, especially because it is a bold, humorous, and heartening tribute to 'any bunny who has ever felt different'. Similarly, it is also a jab at the 'Stink Bugs' of the world who don't understand how others can lead lives unlike their own...an important book that acknowledges and celebrates our differences." -Davenport, IA Library-- -, "Every once in awhile, you come across a book that is not only well-written, but that had the potential to be revolutionary.

It would have been easy for John Oliver's team to lean heavily on the gimmick of satirizing a loathed figure in American politics, but they instead focused on developing a charming story with genuinely funny jokes, making a story for kids that have little interest in keeping up with the news (which would be most kids)." - Globe & Mail -- -, "...an ideal children's book for a new generation and a Pride-approved addition to any coffee table." - Boise Weekly -- -, "An accomplished parody... there's much for kids to like in the funny, earnest cast of anthropomorphic animals." - Publishers Weekly, "An accomplished parody. there's much for kids to like in the funny, earnest cast of anthropomorphic animals." - Publishers Weekly, "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 -- -, "What makes A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo particularly strong is that, while an unabashed political parody, it also stands on its own as a children's book.
