Description
This is not just any boring book it is THE MOST BORING BOOK IN THE WORLD! That is why nothing exciting, funny, or even remotely interesting is allowed in it ...
The Most Boring Book in the World is a hilarious and delightfully clever picture book that breaks the fourth wall. Our narrator, represented by a pair of bespectacled eyes on the page, really really wants the book to have only boring things in it. Like a grey cardigan. Or a potato.
But the reader cant help but put weird and wonderful things on every page, frustrating the narrator all the way to the end.
Kids will delight in the opportunity to watch the rules being tossed aside for the sake of joyous silliness! Readers will love doing everything they are asked not to do!Perfect for fans of Andy Lees Do Not Open This Book and B. J. Novak's The Book With No Pictures. For ages 3 and up.
