Don the Con: A Kid’s book of Trumpian Humor for Adults!
"With facts, our boy was not too picky.
War is peace…let’s not get sticky!"
Dive into a ‘swamp’ of tantrums, misdeeds and muddled understandings as a schoolyard bully embarks on a steep learning curve that takes him all the way through high school—only to discover what most learn in kindergarten!
This wickedly-witty parody sings with lilting rhyme and is illustrated with satirical spice!
Woven into the text are current political mainstays: immigration, border walls, climate change, Russian collusion, fake information and more!
"But one fact was simply not redactive—
Girls just found him unattractive!"
"He was soon loaded down with pounds of bling.
'These Russian kids are the genuine thing!'"
This is a call to endure the last year of Trump’s tantrums with the best armor we have at our disposal: humor, wit, and a democratic ending!

With the 2020 election only a year away, self-publishing is the only way to get the message out in time for all to enjoy. Traditional picture book printing typically takes 2 – 3 years (publisher lists often have backlogs of 3 - 6 years, based on Roseanne’s past 16 products). However, self-publishing will allow this book to be enjoyed by all this holiday season. The average color printing fees for a professionally-printed picture book are $25,000, so self-publishing helps keep the price down. Your generous support will help us launch our work in a professional but cost-effective manner.
