Am I a Dude? (A Little Dudeist Book)
Am I a Dude? as a children's book title can have so many connotations these days, but here, my dudes, James Duncan's Little Dudeist Book naturally refers to a kiddo's potential for membership to the "Number One religion based on a Jeff Bridges movie."
And, even though it would serve me either way, I'm not even kidding. Unlike Go the F**k to Sleep and Nobody Likes a Cockblock, Am I a Dude? isn't even a satire storybook. The Big Lebowski and Bridges' The Dude have legit spun off the Dudeism religion, and the Church of the Latter-Day Dude. And by "legit" I mean, uh, Scientology-style.
In Am I a Dude?, the first of 2 Little Dudeist volumes, a boy named Finnegan learns what a dude is, where dudes came from, and if he abides.
