You might think a book with no pictures seems boring and serious. Except... here's how books work. Everything written on the page has to be said by the person reading it aloud.

Brilliantly irreverent and very, very silly, The Book With No Pictures will delight kids and have them begging for more. From award-winning US comic writer and actor, B. J. Novak.
