Gerry Adams is releasing a book of his favourite tweets and selfies

“I was born with a beard. I stopped shaving when I was 3.”

GERRY ADAMS’ TWITTER feed is known for its mix of personal and political content.

If you haven’t seen it before, you can take a look here.

The Sinn Féin leader is aware his tweets have been deemed “bizarre” and “part of a clever strategy”, and he’s now set to release a book featuring his favourite Twitter musings and selfies.

My Little Book of Tweets can be ordered from the Sinn Féin book shop, which includes the following product 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!

We’re not sure if the below made the cut, but here are some of his Twitter highlights:
