Another hilarious audiobook from actor Max Greenfield, author of I Don't Want To Read This Book and This Book Is Not a Present, dedicated to introverts of all ages, about the horrors of reading aloud.

Nobody in the world actually enjoys reading aloud, do they? Impossible! After all, any number of terrible things could happen: you might come across a word you don't know how to pronounce. Or get distracted by a volcano eruption and lose your place. Even worse, you might accidentally hear the sound of your own voice! Actor Max Greenfield (New Girl, The Neighborhood) and New York Times bestselling illustrator Mike Lowery, the duo behind I Don't Want To Read This Book and This Book Is Not a Present, are back with another side-splitting book that's sure to have kids shouting for repeat read-alouds.

Praise for I Don't Want to Read This Book Aloud

Praise for This Book Is Not a Present:

“Rollicking good humor and the celebrity shine of the first book will ensure that this book is requested over and over again.” —School Library Journal

“Joke-filled . . . Boisterous . . . Goofy.” —Kirkus Reviews

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

“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
