This full-color illustrated book is a fun way for parents to teach young children the valuable lessons of conservatism. Written in simple text, readers can follow along with Tommy and Lou as they open a lemonade stand to earn money for a swing set. But when liberals start demanding that Tommy and Lou pay half their money in taxes, take down their picture of Jesus, and serve broccoli with every glass of lemonade, the young brothers experience the downside to living in Liberaland.

Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
Would you let your child read blatantly liberal stories with titles such as "King & King;" "No, George, No;" or "It's Just a Plant?"
Unless you live in Haight-Ashbury or write for the New York Times, probably not. But with the nation's libraries and classrooms filled with overtly liberal children's books advocating everything from gay marriage to marijuana use, kids everywhere are being deluged with left-wing propaganda.
"Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed" is the book conservative parents have been seeking. This illustrated book -- the first in the "Help! Mom!" series from Kids Ahead -- is perfect for parents who seek to share their traditional values with their children, as well as adults who wish to give a humorous gift to a friend.
Praised by Rush Limbaugh and hailed as "the answer to a baseball mom's prayers" by talk radio host Melanie Morgan, this book has already been the subject of coverage in The Wall Street Journal and Harper's magazine. Written by a self-proclaimed "Security Mom for Bush" and featuring hilarious full-color illustrations by a Reuben Award winning artist, it is certain to be one of the most talked about children's books of the year.

I recently purchased this book for my daughter. I consider myself for the most part, conservative.
If you would like to be black and white about things, there are books on both side of the pollitical spectrum that would serve you well to have your children read, and if you're a hard-core conservative, then you'd appreciate this one. I however, wanted more of a light-hearted, tongue-in-cheek book that doesn't beat you about the head with how bad people on the left are. I was hoping for a happier ending, (you know, that monsters under the bed aren't real). This book just wanted to bash. It was like reading the editorial comics in the Los Angeles Times.
I believe there are a lot of intelligent people on the right AND on the left. Could we please have a few books that show it? This book just makes the right look petty and spiteful, I thought we were bigger than that.

I'll be one of the "adults" (read "liberals") who'll be giving this to their other liberal friends as a humorous gift. Children's book: $10.85. Troglodytes made to look ridiculous: priceless. Thank you, Katharine DeBrecht.

I am disappointed that so many people have decided they need to write hateful, disparaging remarks under the guise of a "review". It is obvious that none of them even bothered (or wanted) to read the book.
I have read it, and it is a humorous look at politics. Topics such as taxation are presented using humor and spur both children and adults to think about the proper role and rate for taxes. This is a great way to introduce children to the concept of "government" and the silly games adults play with it.
Hint for haters: if you don't like it then write your own book about conservatives under the bed!

Waste of money
Although I haven't actually read this book, I think it is entirely inappropriate for Mrs DeBrecht to allow anyone to hide under a bed - let alone liberals. Read more

And He Said, "Let the Hate Begin with the Children"
Is their no end to the hateful Christians today's right breeds? The reason there is no equivalent book from the "left" is we're not hateful, mean-spirited people. Read more
