The Book with No Pictures

The Book with No Pictures — BookJoy Description

The Book with No Pictures by B. J. Novak is a wonderfully silly picture book that proves a book doesn't need illustrations to make children laugh. Instead, the reader must say every ridiculous word and sound written on the page—including goofy noises and unexpected phrases. The fun comes from the grown-up reading the words aloud and the child enjoying the absurdity.
