A review by ristretto
Bedtime Stories for Privileged Children: Charming Tales of Wealth and Entitlement for Tots Who Were Simply Born Better by Daniel Foxx

funny medium-paced

5.0

Follow Tarquin, Astrid, and all their friends as they go on holiday and have adventures and new experiences tormenting Nanny 3 and the staff along the way. Full disclosure, I was already a massive fan of Daniel Foxx and already very much looking for to this. So when I was able to get the chance to read the ARC for Bedtime Stories for Privileged Children I jumped on it. This is such an utter delight, especially when shared by reading aloud with friends and family. (Although no one can do it justice like Daniel Foxx himself, wine glass held precariously!) Then there are the illustrations by Axana Zasorina which are absolute perfection giving a retro aesthetic and really complementing the humor.

This is such great fun and will be revisited again and again. I can’t wait to get my hands on a physical copy when it’s released this November. This would make a fun gift or coffee table book. If you enjoy witty satire definitely pick this up and also check out what else the author Daniel Foxx is up too as well!

Thank you very much to NetGalley and the publisher. I received an advance review copy, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
