Yeah it’s funny and I laughed and I probably would’ve laughed more if I was actually reading this out loud to young kids. This fits in well with the interactive meta-fiction sub-genre of children’s books. A perfect storytime book.

Hilarious! From the very same Novak known for "The Office." A kids book with no pictures but a LOT of fun! ...more

I can see how kids would love hearing this book read aloud to them. Good for classroom visits.

A good share for reading with kids. The words more than make up for the lack of pictures, and they will leave the kids in stitches. I would expect nothing less from BJ Novak, honestly.
