If you already follow him on Twitter, you'll know what a singular presence Gerry Adams is.
And if you don't, you’re missing out as Gerry's activity on social media ranges from the sublime to the ridiculous.
My favourite rapper is meself.

And now the Sinn Féin president is releasing a book of his best contributions to Twitter, handpicked by the man itself. My Little Book of Tweets is expected to be released on January 29 and will cost €8.99 plus shipping.
From the Sinn Féin Bookshop description:
"Gerry Adams' tweets have been described as bizarre, weird and as part of a clever strategy. This compact book is a compilation of tweets selected by the man himself.
"Gerry Adams is a well known public figure and his tweets range across the political and the personal, the serious and the humorous, often featuring rubber ducks and teddy bears! This little books shows the lighter side of his personality and allows the reader some insight into his private life. The inevitable 'selfies' are included showing that many years experience of politics have taught him not to take himself too seriously!"
And here's the cover - you may remember that goat selfie.

Here are some classic Gerry tweets that to be included.
I was born with a beard. I stopped shaving when I was 3.
