Kid President’s Book Among Amazon’s Top 100 Best Sellers On Release Day

Kid President authored his own book, and on its release day, it garnered a fair bit of buzz online. After hitting Amazon‘s digital shelves on February 3rd, Kid President’s Guide to Being Awesome reached the retailer’s list of its top 100 best-selling books.

At the time of this post, the new book sits in 89th place on Amazon’s best-seller list. That’s not quite as strong as the tremendous sales figures we’ve seen from some other books based on YouTube personalities, but it’s still a promising start for the diminutive motivational speaker (real name Robby Novak) who appears in videos on the SoulPancake channel.

The book, which features the same sort of “pep talks” that have made Kid President into a YouTube sensation, has a chance to sell more copies as Novak continues to promote it.
