A #1 New York Times bestseller, this innovative and wildly funny read-aloud by award-winning humorist/actor B.J. Novak will turn any reader into a comedian.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. Even if the words say . . .BLORK. Or BLUURF. Even if the words are a preposterous song about eating ants for breakfast, or just a list of astonishingly goofy sounds like BLAGGITY BLAGGITY and GLIBBITY GLOBBITY. Cleverly irreverent and irresistibly silly, The Book with No Pictures is one that kids will beg to hear again and again. (And parents will be happy to oblige.) k-3

Donna Earnhardt Being Frank
Frank is always honest. The balancing act of finding tact, that fine line between telling the truth and telling too much truth, is the main theme of this story, and it's very funny - although not necessarily to his friend Dotti whose freckles remind Frank of the Big Dipper or to the teacher who hears that her breath smells like onions. No one is quite as impressed with Frank's honesty as he thinks they should be. With everyone annoyed at him, Frank is now honestly unhappy. With a few lessons from Grandpa, Frank begins to understand that the truth is important, but so is not being hurtful.
