A Book About the Importance of Voting

Ralph Lane has published a new book entitled Just F*cking Vote. From its title, you can tell that it is quite different from his previous dad joke books. Although it is still very funny and has Ralph's trademark nostalgic illustrations, the topic and style of the book are quite a change from his past ten books. Why is Voting Important? Just F*cking Vote by Ralph Lane Ralph became very concerned when he started hearing people (especially younger people) saying that since they weren't fond of the candidates, they weren't going to vote. So he decided to explain, in very blunt terms, why it is important to vote. Unlike his previous books, Ralph decided to write this book mostly in the form of a long poem. So the look and style of text is almost like that of a child's book. Yet the content is definitely a little more PG-13 due the use of one particularly inappropriate F word, over and over again. In an exclusive interview, Ralph Lane tells us about his latest book about why voting is important. Encouragement to Vote Basically, Just F*cking Vote answers the question, "Why should you vote?" With poetic verse, fun illustrations and wise quotes about voting, Ralph makes it crystal clear. Voting is crucial!! Readers will love the witty rhymes and crude humor in this book, but most of all, they will come away from it with the notion that voting is not an option; it is a requirement of a democratic society. Who Should Read This Book About Voting? This book is thoroughly entertaining and informative for anyone of voting age. It is especially good for those people who are thinking about not voting this year or at any time. Just F*cking Vote makes a great gift for high school seniors, college students or that stubborn friend who insists…
