“Mac Barnett is top shelf children’s book author for me. Every single book he writes is an instant hit with my child (and me). He’s so smart and charming and his writing is perfectly edited and not a single unnecessary word is used. This book I breezed through and I selfishly wish he would write more books for adults even though that’s a pet peeve when people ask him that 😂 I also learned David Fo”

“this little book about books for little (or at least young) people is funny and serious. At page 3 I was mourning that there were only 90 pages.”
