Descripción editorial
From actor Max Greenfield (from television’s New Girl) comes a hilarious picture book for every child who thinks they don't like to read books (and all the kids—and grownups—who do).
Words, sentences, and even worse, paragraphs fill up books. Ugh! So what's a reluctant reader to do? Actor Max Greenfield (New Girl) and New York Times bestselling illustrator Mike Lowery bring the energy and laugh-out-loud fun out for every child (and parent) who thinks they don’t want to read a book. Joining the ranks of favorites like The Book With No Pictures and The Serious Goose, this clever and playful read-aloud breaks the fourth wall and will have all readers coming back for laughs again and again!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This humorous picture book by Greenfield follows a familiar premise: the narrator, a reluctant reader, does not want to read the book in their hands. What follows is a meta text filled with curious asides and snarky ruminations on words, sentences, paragraphs, and more, both on an individual level and structurally: "Some words are just plain RIDICULOUS," one page reads in handwriting-like text. "Take the word DOUBT for example," the next page continues: "What is a ‘B' doing in there???" A goldenrod box reads, pointing to the word in question. "If no one can HEAR the B why do we have to SEE it???" Lowery's art, done in pencil and digital media, evokes a child's notebook, with plentiful simple doodles, word art, underlines, boxes, and more against colorfully eye-catching pages and graph paper–evoking grids in this visually compelling narrative. Ages 4–8.
