Goodnight Booze: A Recovery Storybook by Jay Walker
The bedtime story you needed as a kid — written for the night you finally asked for help.
★ ABOUT ★
Goodnight Booze, written by Jay Walker, follows one person's journey from a long, lonely night to the morning a phone call, a meeting, and a roomful of strangers turned into something else. Told in the gentle rhythm of a classic bedtime story — but written for adults, about the night everything started to change.
It's not a joke book. It's the story underneath the slogans — One Day at a Time, Easy Does It, Keep Coming Back — and what it actually feels like to live them.

★ FAQ ★
Is this an actual children's book?
No — it's built like one (durable, laminated, rounded corners), but it's a heartfelt story written for adults about the night everything changed, and what came after.
Can I customize it?
No — this title has fixed story content. It's a complete 10-spread narrative, not a fill-in-the-blank book.
