About this ebook

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—a perfect gift for any special occasion!

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.)

Ratings and reviews

THE BOOK WITH NO PICTURES This book is an amazing wonderful book stating that not everything needs pictures. the book is Jacqueline Doyle and Stephen D. Gutierrez are San Francisco Bay Area writers and professors, each with an impressive writing resume. Additionally, the spouses co-write as the invented Alvarado O’Brien. This time around on 100 Words, learn about three flash aficionados at once!an amazing way to show the love. it is a great book.By Todd Mercer Should you die while stuck on Hold, your confused spirit can loop indefinitely within the phone tree. Hold music continues unabated? You’re already in Hell.

It is incredibly short for the price. I understand that it's a kids book, and shouldn't be too long, but my kids wanted way more. The description says there are 48 pages, but many pages are completely blank. Not worth the 12$

Got free sample. Loved it. Bought the book because kids wanted me to read more. I didn't realize the "sample" was the WHOLE book and I just wasted $10.
