Jules Note:  When I first discovered Lin-Manuel Miranda's Gmornings and Gnights on facebook they were like a breath of fresh air.  He almost always had something perfect to say, and so much of the time it felt like he was talking just to me.  Then came the day that he mentioned he was turning his posts into a book, with a fantastic illustrator.  I couldn't wait to purchase a copy for myself.  THEN I realized that his publishing company is one of my vendors!  *cue happy dance*  I'm thrilled to have this beautiful book as part of my stock.  It makes a great gift, or a great book to have on hand on a down day.  Open to any page, read, and smile.  Rinse, repeat.  ;)
From the creator and star of Hamilton, 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.
