"Mike Pence's pet rabbit is the best thing about Washington." --The Week
"Marlon is ridiculously cute and appears to be fully aware of that fact." --The Washington Post
Marlon Bundo is "an objectively good name for a bunny." --John Oliver, HBO's Last Week Tonight
"The Vice President and his wife could kiss their audience's attention goodbye once Marlon Bundo was introduced!" -- CNN, covering Marlon Bundo's appearance at a White House military appreciation event
From the moment he hopped into the home of America's "Second Family," black-and-white bunny rabbit Marlon Bundo captured the hearts of Vice President Mike Pence, his wife Karen, and his children Michael, Charlotte, and Audrey. But little Marlon Bundo isn't just a family pet: like Peter Rabbit and Bugs Bunny before him, Marlon--or BOTUS (Bunny of the United States)--is a national celebrity! With his appearances at official White House events, his rides on Air Force 2, and his popular Instagram account, Marlon Bundo has become a beloved member of the Trump-Pence administration.
So how does a bunny experience a day in the life of the Vice President? Now young readers can follow Marlon Bundo along as he hops after "Grampa" (Vice President Mike Pence) in this delightful story penned by Charlotte Pence and illustrated faithfully with watercolors from the "Second Lady" herself, Karen Pence.

Penned in rhyming verse, Marlon Bundo’s A Day in the Life of the Vice President follows the cute black-and-white bunny rabbit, also known as BOTUS (Bunny of the United States), as he experiences a day in the life of his “Grampa,” thus giving young readers an introductory glimpse into the work of the Vice President from his early morning at the official residence on the Naval Observatory Base, through his duties at the White House West Wing, the Capitol, and the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, to his return home. How do Mr. Pence and Marlon end their day? “At last Grampa gets out his Bible, And he quietly bows his head. I place my paw on his hand For one little prayer before bed.” There are three additional pages of explanatory notes at the back of the book to provide further information. Proceeds from book sales will go to an art therapy program called Tracy’s Kids and a nonprofit, A21, that’s working to end slavery and human trafficking. I would like to give this book SIX stars!
One word of warning! Beware of vile, cheap, imitation knock-offs. John Oliver, the mean-spirited, punk-jerk-idiot, late-night television host of HBO’s “Last Week Tonight” used the book to mock Vice President Pence, ranting about how Pence supposedly hates “gay” people and saying, “I would love to say, ‘Fine, it’s a fun, sweet book about a rabbit … Who gives a [expletive]?…But unfortunately, one of the stops on that book tour is at Focus on the [expletive]-ing Family. So, congratulations, Pence, you’ve even managed to ruin Marlon Bundo.” Not being content just to harangue the Pences with foul language, the vitriolic Oliver then decided to hit where he thought it would hurt the Pences most, announcing that he was releasing a competing book called A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo, supposedly written by Marlon Bundo with Jill Twiss, and illustrated by E.G. Keller, that is about homosexual rabbits. Marlon is “gay” and falls in love with another boy rabbit named Wesley while living at the Naval Observatory. The bad guy is Stink Bug, who looks like Mike Pence. This is NOT a sequel to Pence’s book and should be avoided.
It introduces you to various rooms and their functions in the White House. It shows you the responsibilities of the VP. It speaks respectfully of the previous administration. People who have judged this book harshly probably haven't read it at all and simply hate the Pence family because they are professing Christians. In a rational society, there shouldn't be room for hating people with whom you politically disagree.
I liked the book for what it ACTUALLY was -- a book about the job of the Vice President of the United States.
Also, I was curious what a vice president actually does (no matter that it's written for kids, I much enjoyed it anyway), and you get to look at all the duties the job brings as the bunny sees the vice president doing them. There are also end notes on the things the bunny observes if you want to find out more about them.
The "bunny perspective" is an ingenious narrative device, as it makes the book very apolitical and timeless - you could actually swap Mr. Pence for any other vice president without changing much (details like the bunny remarking in passing on the landscape painting hanging in the vice president's office: another VP would probably have a different taste in art). He's more or less a living prop that lets the bunny go places to look at them until the last page, which is a bit more personal and shows him as an individual filling an office instead of an anonymous office holder.
All in all I much enjoyed the book and hope more are coming up that send "the bunny of the US" on other inside views of political office.
