Drawing from the imaginative quotes President Bush has uttered over the years, the George W. Bush Coloring Book illustrates Bush's very own words in the form of a coloring book. Illustrator Karen Ocker lends her visually distinct style to on-the-record quotes such as It's amazing I won. I was running against peace, prosperity and incumbency.

Laugh Out Loud!,
By A Customer
This review is from: George W. Bush Coloring Book (Paperback)
This coloring book exceeds C. W. McKee's Clinton coloring Book that came out in 1999. I'm adding this one to my collection. Though I may not share the same politics as Wood or Ocker, I certainly can't debate the facts and quotes that it's based on. I'm a republican and still capable of finding the humor in Bush's constant verbal blunders and wish that his mis-speaks were the worst of it. I'd rather laugh than cringe. Ocker's drawings have me laughing out loud. I reccomend this book to anyone, regardless of party affiliation, with half a sense of humor. The quotes are carefully selected and the drawings are skillfully composed. They are hilarious. I'm banking on this becoming a collector's item.

Sure to be a collector's item,
By A Customer
This review is from: George W. Bush Coloring Book (Paperback)
When I saw the book mentioned on CNN I thought it might be another amusing gag book and I bought it for a friend, but this is HILARIOUS. Better than I expected. A great way to package political history, and it will play it's own small part to insure that public amnesia does not set in about another president a few decades from now. I wish the book was longer but it's well worth the price. I'm buying one for myself now.

HILARIOUS! BEST DELIVERY OF BUSH-BABBLE I'VE SEEN!,
By A Customer
This review is from: George W. Bush Coloring Book (Paperback)
It's a great gift, chock-full-o some of my favorite Bushism's, delivered in a uniquely creative way. It's packaged with Source Notes that are interesting and informative and help to put the quotes into context for readers. The book ends with a factual, information-packed essay about our grave political reality by Wood, which only enhances this book's credibility. What an ingenious way to deliver Dubya's mis-speaks! With so much Bush-babble at their disposal (and more mounting by the day), I'm wondering how they narrowed it down to pack such a punch. When I got to the last page I was hungry for more of Ocker's skillful, deadpan illustrations. They had my friends and I laughing out loud and pulling out the crayons. Even my republican friends are asking where they can get a copy. I can't recommend this book enough!
