And this narrator should know--it's the book itself, and it has a lot of opinions. It gets irritated when readers bend its pages back, and it finds authors quite annoying. But it does have a story to tell. Through witty direct address and charming illustrations, readers meet a book that has never been read, with a cover the boring color of a school lunch table and pages so dry they give bookworms indigestion. But what happens when this book meets you, a curious reader? Multitalented author Richard Ayoade and award-winning illustrator Tor Freeman bring to life a hilariously subversive take on the nature of books and reading, with a heartening theme of finding the courage to tell our own stories. Readers of all ages will be delighted by the myriad bookish references and laughs on every page."-- $c Publisher marketing. 521 1 $a Ages 8-12. $b Walker Books. 521 1 $a Ages 10+ 650 0 $a Books $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Books and reading $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Fiction $x Authorship $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Book covers $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Children's stories. 650 1 $a Books $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Books and reading. 650 1 $a Fiction $x Authorship 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Freeman, Tor, $e illustrator. 941 $a 30 952 $l FWPE284 $d 20240611031138.0 952 $l SLPC094 $d 20240517132651.0 $m F Ayo 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20240412010637.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314025327.0 952 $l SMPE094 $d 20240104021642.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20231206014227.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20231202012454.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20231031011136.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20231005013456.0 952 $l OEPC877 $d 20230921145324.0 $m JF Ayo 952 $l VPPC384 $d 20230919010741.0 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20230812010418.0 952 $l FPPC224 $d 20230729010444.0 952 $l JKPC771 $d 20230722010422.0 952 $l CVPA586 $d 20230722010155.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20230718014028.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230630010759.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015326.0 952 $l VMPC334 $d 20230627011411.0 952 $l VFPB334 $d 20230622010955.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230621010434.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20230621010101.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20230620010730.0 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20230614010440.0 952 $l BFPA251 $d 20230523181404.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20230523011526.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230512010229.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230502010940.0 952 $l VZPB964 $d 20230428010439.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230405010254.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=368B7D54D37711ED83DD52344BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
