Jory John and Avery Monsen

From the authors of the breakout bestseller All My Friends Are Dead (more than 175,000 copies sold) and in the humorous vein of Go the F**k to Sleep, comes a laugh out loud collection of bad advice that turns the children's alphabet book on its head.

In this funny book for teens and adults alike, adorable illustrated characters lead readers down a path of poor decision making and alphabetical, rhyming couplets offer terrible life lessons in whichO is foropening things with your teeth,F is for setting Daddy's wallet onfire, andR is forRaccoon (but definitely not forrabies).

With plenty of playfully disastrous choices lurking around every corner, this compendium of black humor may be terrible for actual children, but it's perfect for the common senseless child in all adults.

Avery Monsen is a New York-based artist and writer. He is the co-author of All my friends are dead. and All my friends are still dead.

Jory John is a California-based writer, editor, and cartoonist. He is the co-author of All my friends are dead. and All my friends are still dead.
