Praise for I Don’t Want to Read This Book:

“I Don’t Want to Read This Book . . . is in the same family as books like The Book With No Pictures and The Serious Goose. A funny read-aloud, it breaks the fourth wall and engages young readers who are normally reluctant to pick up a book.” —People.com

“This satirical picture book . . . hilariously lists all the things he’d rather be doing than actually reading this book.” —Variety

“Hilarious and thoughtful.” —Parents Magazine

“Invites reluctant readers on a wry, irreverent adventure, with exuberant drawings and graphics, and lots of winks to kids who will wink back.” —Romper

“Greenfield’s irreverent text demolishes the fourth wall, and Lowery’s peppy pencil and digital-media renderings of his words have a vibe reminiscent of a child’s journal, with doodle-style drawings accenting his dynamic renditions of Greenfield’s words. For avid and reluctant readers alike, this tongue-in-cheek, metafictive send-up of reading as a chore is delightfully unlikely to live up to its title.” —Shelf Awareness
“Genuinely funny . . . A feisty manifesto and appealing visual experience.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Silly, funny, and visually appealing, this work will appeal to reluctant and avid readers . . . A great classroom read-aloud bound to make listeners join in the fun.” —School Library Journal

“Colorfully eye-catching and visually compelling.” —Publishers Weekly

“Perfect for reluctant and avid readers alike, I Don’t Want to Read This Book will have kids cracking up on every page.” —Books to Borrow . . . Books to Buy
