Dubya & Eddie
Available now at Amazon.com and bookstores

This book-length, heavily illustrated, satirical fable starts during the George W. Bush campaign in Texas, where Bush rallies are followed by a hungry scavenger, a clever coyote who, like all coyotes, understands about 200 words of English and Tex-Mex, but can't speak a word.  By accident the coyote is carried to Washington in the luggage compartment of a bus, and he winds up in the White House grounds being adopted by George "Dubya" Bush.  From pet, to mascot, to principal confidential adviser, Eddie, the coyote, shares the most intimate, though simple, thoughts of the president and provides a rare insight into the inner, obscure personality of America's leader.

Dubya & Eddie is not irreverent, but it unintentionally takes the mickey off the president, something which is well within the great American democratic tradition.
