from A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway
On last night’s Colbert Report, Stephen showed off the cover of his Maurice Sendak-blurbed children’s book, I Am a Pole (And So Can You!), which will hit bookshelves on May 8. He also announced that the audiobook will be read by Tom Hanks and sat down with Dame Julie Andrews to discuss her 26 children’s books and princess underpants.
But did you know Stephen has another book coming out this year? It’s true! America Again: Re-becoming the Greatness We Never Weren’t will be released October 2 and is available for pre-order now!
Your dream of an entire bookcase filled with the writings of Stephen Colbert is one step closer to a reality.

Some of them are easy, others not so much.

Somehow some people can’t fathom the fact that I might have picked up a book just for the sake of reading it.
