Item 9781984854278
Sale price$28.00
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the creator and star of Hamilton and In the Heights, with beautiful illustrations by Jonny Sun, comes a book of affirmations to inspire readers at the beginning and end of each day.

“When the world is bringing you down, Gmorning, Gnight! will remind you that you are awesome.”—Booklist

Good morning. Do NOT get stuck in the comments section of life today. Make, do, create the things. Let others tussle it out. Vamos!

Before he inspired the world with Hamilton and was catapulted to international fame, Lin-Manuel Miranda was inspiring his Twitter followers with words of encouragement at the beginning and end of each day. He wrote these original sayings, aphorisms, and poetry for himself as much as for others. But as Miranda’s audience grew, these messages took on a life on their own. Now Miranda has gathered the best of his daily greetings into a beautiful collection illustrated by acclaimed artist (and fellow Twitter favorite) Jonny Sun. Full of comfort and motivation, Gmorning, Gnight! is a touchstone for anyone who needs a quick lift.

Great read aloud with kids

"I read this with my kids as a little bed stone story read over the course of a few weeks and we all enjoyed the little snippets of life. It's cute and light hearted and I could also find a few entries that matched our feelings about the day."

A gem of a book - the perfect pick-me-up!

"I just realized I've had this little gem sitting on my bedside for quite some time, and I I've never reviewed it! It's a lovely book with quips, quotes, and poems to begin and end your day and I just adore it! Though I've read it all, I still open it up every once in a while when I need a pick-me-up! I absolutely adore Lin-Manuel Miranda. His brilliance is unmatched - Hamilton, Moana, and In the Heights are all ethereal works of art. His musicality and rhyme are so unique and catchy, that it's no wonder he's made such a name for himself. To boot, he's just a good guy - a philanthropist and humanitarian - raising money for his native Puerto Rico and advocating for immigrants. So, as you've heard me say before, kind people are my kinda people - and Mr. Miranda sure fits the bill! So, pick up this handful of joy if you're in need of a smile. It's sure to brighten your day (or night)! ɢᴏᴏᴅ ᴍᴏʀɴɪɴɢ. ɢᴏᴏᴅ ɢʀᴀᴄɪᴏᴜs. ʏᴏᴜʀ sᴍɪʟᴇ ɪs ᴄᴏɴᴛᴀɢɪᴏᴜs."

"So grateful for Lin-Manuel Miranda and the way he looks out for and cares about everyone. These little messages are so lovely. It’s only 4 stars for me, however, because, as much as I wanted all of his little diddies and encouraging messages collected in a book, I actually think they’re better served individually on twitter and in that medium. (Weird and unexpected, I know. ) It’s not that Jonny Sun’s illustrations take away from them (they’re GREAT), it’s more like books are pleasant enough already but these words of encouragement shine more in contrast to twitter’s trash heap self."

"Sneak a copy to a friend, a cop, a nurse/aide, retail clerk, mother/father of children at home, chronic illness sufferer, teenager, and absolutely everyone whether you know them or not! And keep one at your bedside to help you remember how wonderful you are!"

GMORNING, GNIGHT (little pep talks for me and you) by Lin-Manuel M . . .

"GMORNING, GNIGHT (little pep talks for me and you) by Lin-Manuel Miranda with illustrations by Jonny Sun was a delight to read, all in one sitting! For years, LMM has been encouraging his Twitter followers at the beginning and ending of each day. These tweets are like having a life coach, cheerleader, therapist, and great friend whispering affirmations of kindness and motivation into your ear before and after your day. Although I sped through this, I plan on keeping it out to read a few lines each morning with my coffee. This collection would also be perfect for a morning commute or enjoyed with tea or wine at night. The illustrations were clearly sketched to reflect the soulful content of each pair of tweets and add an extra layer of sweet creativity to each page. Thank you to Random House for my copy, in exchange for my honest review."
