About this product

Product Information

If a kid is trying to make you read this book, the kid is playing a trick on you. You will end up saying silly things and making everybody laugh and laugh! 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.)

Great fun for young readers
Bought this as a Christmas present for my grandson’s class as it is one of his favourites. They loved it when their teacher read it to them and several have stopped me to tell me how much fun they had, especially when she had to say “boo boo butt”. An excellent book for showing young children the joy of reading, even without pictures.

Love, Love, LOVE this book!
This is the second copy of this book I have bought. Though our first is well eared, this was a gift for my kids reception teacher. I LOVE this book. My kids love this book. We love all doing the silly voices (because you won't be able to read it in your normal voice. Silly voices are a must!) We lent it to the nursery last year and the teachers loved it as it was a brilliant way of teaching 3-4 year olds the concept of what words are in a book. There is only one problem with the Book With No Pictures. Just one. You will never be able to read it just once with your kids. So if you are sitting down to read it with them be aware. When you finish they will probably ask you to turn back to the beginning and start again.
