Whose Boat Is This Boat? Comments That Don’t Help in the Aftermath of a Hurricane is a picture book made entirely of quotations from President Donald Trump in the wake of Hurricane Florence. It is the first children’s book that demonstrates what not to say after a natural disaster.
On September 19, 2018, Donald Trump paid a visit to New Bern, North Carolina, one of the towns ravaged by Hurricane Florence. It was there he showed deep concern for a boat that washed ashore. “At least you got a nice boat out of the deal,” said President Trump to hurricane victims. “Have a good time!” he told them. The only way his comments would be appropriate is in the context of a children’s book—and now you can experience them that way, thanks to the staff of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
Whose Boat Is This Boat? is an excellent teaching tool for readers of all ages who enjoy learning about empathy by process of elimination. Have a good time!

It’s Sad that This is Nonfiction
It’s sad that all of these things were actually said by a president. They show a complete lack of empathy, so I can’t really say I wish it were longer. I can certainly see how many more similarly themed books could be created in the aftermath of the manmade disaster that is the 45th president of the United States of America. If nothing else, this is a really good book to teach kids not to vote for reality tv stars but for actual leaders.
