6 / 5 Stars

Ha ha! A well deserved 6 stars out of 5 for such a great idea. Not just for being a picture book without pictures….

B J Novak realised that when you read a book outload – you read it to someone – you have to say what is on the page!

My son Joey was in hysterics at this revelation. This book makes the adult say silly things, and the child realises this almost as soon as the book starts, and relishes it.

The best line with the most laughs?
