The Worst Love Book in the Whole Entire World: A Seriously Silly Story for Kids
DISCLAIMER: the following book is not meant to be educational or considered a literary classical masterpiece by any means. However, if you and your child have a clever and unique sense of humor then this very well may be the book for you. Think 'The Book with No Pictures' humor, but with...pictures...
Love is in the air...or maybe not.
Because this is the Worst Love Book in the Whole Entire World. Nameless, the dashing young rock on the cover, tries to explain to the reader why this book is simply the worst LOVE book ever. What could possibly be so bad about a book about love? Who is that lady rock on the cover?? Is there really a goat in this book? Wait...WHAT?!?
The Worst Love Book in the Whole Entire World is a humorous and witty tale for young and seasoned readers. Fall in (or out of) love with a book so bad it might actually be good...

I read all of the books in this series back to back last night and I thought that they were great!
This is the fourth book in the series and it was a fun light-hearted read and I loved how it was written as an adult – very funny and I can see all the books being massive hits, a simple idea done really well!
It is 4 stars from me for this one – highly recommended!

silly love book
My son is loving the worst book series. This was no different. He was involved in the story, answering the questions and wanting to know what happened next. Great silly preschool book.

I believe I might just be in love with this book!
Yes, yes I most certainly am in love 💘 with this book, perhaps with the whole series. These books have the most pure and simple illustrations but they always manage to convey the true feelings of the little rock.
A~MAZ~ING!
Kids will be mesmerized by the silliness and they will quite possibly fall in love with the 'Love Goat' lol. Whilst adults will enjoy the sarcasm.
Miss Ruby Heart L❤VES this too and gives this book
🐾🐾🐶 4 Paws and a lick = 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Very highly recommended. Happy Reading 📚📖

Yeah, pretty dumb book. One that involved a cupid goat and a love potion gone wrong lol
But one page really had me laughing. It was reason #3 for being the worst love book:
"There are flowers in this book.
Flowers SMELL funny.
Flowers do NOT live for a very long time.
Flowers, the fancy LOVE ones, cost a LOT of money.
Flowers HAVE to be taken care of, kind of like a dog, bit they don't play with you."
TRUTH! 😂😂😂

The Worst Love Book in the Whole Entire World: A funny and silly children's book for kids and parents about the power of love. (Entire World Books) by Joey Acker-- This is on kindle unlimited. The rocks have a love goat. I just don’t even know what to do with this series. I love them, but I can see a kid looking at me while I laugh my head off wondering why I think the cynical little rocks are the bomb. But I like them! Happy Reading!

wonderful book about true love
This little rock is in the worst love book, but it’s not actually the worst book this book actually rocks. I read it to my daughters and my 10-year-old said.: “ this book is really funny and weird.” I also read to seven year-old and She said, “ why is he getting in love when at first he didn’t want to?” I suppose it was a great introduction to the complexities of romance…. Definitely worth a read.

The best LOVE book for an 8 year old boy!
My 8 year old son had this to say for the review: Ten stars. This book was awesome and funny. I liked all the reasons why it’s the worst love book. It was fast and easy to read. And funny!

Funny! This book is great. Yes, you probably have to have bit of a strange sense of humor, but it's just the kind do of humor a lot of kiddos (and mom's like me) enjoy! Really refreshing and fun, laugh out loud book.

Such a cute series!!
Great book for young kids. My 7 year old laughed out loud and really liked the goat. It’s great for kids who tend to look at the negative too often. It puts it in perspective for them.

The Worst Love Book in the Entire World is an adorable children’s picture book by Joey Acker. The reason the character describes that this is the worst book are hilarious and the surprises along the way will leave children laughing. I highly recommend this picture book and series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another hysterical gem
This book was pure comedy to read. It’s so cute and does a wonderful job talking about love without being so “lovey dovey”. Great read!

Funny Valentines Day Book Idea
This is a cute book but there isn’t much of a story. It’s a funny gag gift to give to a loved one.

This is another cute story. That rock is easily the most lovable thing who is all grouchy about holidays. I love how it isn't a single event that makes everything all better type of story. This series gets an A+ and I'm glad my kids found them.
