It’s Good to Laugh
I am a huge fan of comedy satire show The Daily Show with Jon Stewart…
…so imagine my surprise as I was watching tonight and Jon Stewart held up one of my kids books in the opening bit of the show.
In one of those delightful moments that life occasionally throws up, the Daily Show ran a taped interview with Senator John McCain saying that Jon Stewart, and his political views, really don’t matter. Jon pulled my 2010 children’s book Everyone Matters from under his desk, pointed at it and shouted “You lied to me book! You lied!”, and went on to challenge McCain to a Daily Show ‘Wrong-Off’. I nearly fell off the sofa and may even have gained some ‘cool’ points with my son (a rare occurrence).
Jon (and team) you are AMAZING and I am just shallow enough for this tiny, utterly random moment to be one of the highlights of my year.
