terrifying, inspiring and downright surprising sh*t happening all

uncharted places in the world, at others a touching exploration of
the human heart, this collection of life-affirming stories and
breathtaking photographs changes how we think about humanity and
community and invites us all on a journey to see the world, and
each other, anew.
The political humor book of the election season—Dog on the Roof!
chronicles Mitt Romney’s infamous family adventure with hilarious
four-color illustrations throughout. They were the typical American
family on a typical American road trip—Dad behind the wheel, Mom
in the passenger seat, their five adorable kids piled in the back.
And, of course, their beloved dog strapped to the roof. Wait . . .
what? Now for the first time, here is the completely true—and
only mildly embellished— shaggy-dog story of Seamus Romney, the
famously fetching Irish setter whose master, future presidential
candidate Mitt Romney, plopped him atop the family station wagon
for that infamous 1983 car trip. From the majesty of Mount Rushmore
to the fabulousness of San Francisco, from the sacred temple of
Salt Lake City to the hallowed halls of Washington, D.C., here at
last is Seamus’s rooftop account of that headline-grabbing
journey . . . unleashed. Doggedly chronicled by satirists Bruce
Kluger and David Slavin (NPR’s All Things Considered), and
cleverly illustrated by Colleen Clapp (The Chris Matthews Show, NBC
News), this American tale is more than just the story of a dog on a
hot tin roof. It is the inside (well . . . overhead) look at the
Man Who Would Be President and the wild ride that’s
sweeping—and bewildering—the nation.
On November 5th, 2008, journalists Bruce Kluger and David Tabatsky
had a simple idea: to recapture the exhilarating spirit of the 2008
election from the perspective of our nation's children. They
emailed a handful of friends. Those friends forwarded the email to
their friends and relatives. In the end, the same infectious
enthusiasm that fueled the Obama campaign itself produced the 200
letters and drawings collected here. From every region of the
country, from ages four to 18, these kids talk about their hopes,
fears, and dreams, and their unchecked excitement about the
historic election that took place during their young lives. Kluger
and Tabatsky also collaborated with the young contributors to
create the vibrant visuals that accompany their remarkable letters.
