Letters will go missing! The book will act up and squirm around and grow wings and try to fly away! It will even insert a bunny that has absolutely nothing to do with anything. A persistent reader might see all kinds of strange and magical things, silly and secret things...But this book just does not want to be read, and it's better to leave it alone. ...Or is it?

Bewertungen
"Following in the fantastic trend of interactive and wildly innovative books, this will rank among adored kid-pleasers like Hervé Tullet's Press Here (2011), and B. J. Novak's The Book with No Pictures (2014). Every page is a surprise, a treat, and a discovery...[t]he whole experience is unexpected in the best possible way[.]"--Booklist, starred review
"This is a hilarious and thoughtful book, so much more than a funny read-aloud; the drawings and layout are essential elements that demonstrate how the visual arrangement of a book can communicate a whole story."--School Library Journal
