About this listen
This innovative and wildly funny read-aloud by award-winning humorist/actor B.J. Novak will turn any listener into a comedian.
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.)

Story
Meet the good egg. He’s a verrrrrry good egg indeed. But trying to be so good is hard when everyone else is plain ol’ rotten. As the other eggs in the dozen behave badly, the good egg starts to crack from all the pressure of feeling like he has to be perfect. So, he decides enough is enough! It’s time for him to make a change.... Jory John hatches a funny and charming story that reminds us of the importance of balance, self-care, and accepting those who we love (even if they are sometimes a bit rotten).

Critic reviews
"Conceptually radical...making the refreshing and contrarian case that words alone have sensory and imaginative vibrancy to spare." (Mark Levine, The New York Times Book Review)
"This book may not have pictures, but it's sure to inspire lots of conversations - and laughs.... A riotously fresh take on breaking the fourth wall." (Kirkus, starred review)
"This book is sure to be a crowd-pleaser, and it’s perfect for one-on-one sharing with a parent or caregiver. Expect requests for repeated readings." (School Library Journal)

The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world.

Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Dragons love tacos. They love chicken tacos, beef tacos, great big tacos, and teeny tiny tacos. So if you want to lure a bunch of dragons to your party, you should definitely serve tacos. Buckets and buckets of tacos. Unfortunately, where there are tacos, there is also salsa. And if a dragon accidentally eats spicy salsa...oh, boy. You're in red-hot trouble.

One of my favorite books, read by the author
I love that they offer both a male and female narration. This is one of my absolute favorite children’s stories. It is so much fun. It contains a lot of nonsense words, so I liked the chance to listen to the Audible version to see how Novak pronounces everything. He does a great narration job. It is a simple read-along performance.

Kids love this book
Kids love this book so got it on audible. They like the book better than this audible. Was hoping they would like it more but they listened once and that was enough for them. They would rather get out the hardback and read it.

Funniest kids book ever!
If you can read with voices and emotion, if you can make letters on the page turn into silly sounds, if you love to make your kid squirm in anticipation and giggle, this is the book for you! The book MUST be read exactly as written. Those are the rules. Who needs pictures, when the person reading the book HAS to say they are a monkey and they MUST read with a monkey voice? Pictures are irrelevant when the person reading says "BA-DOOOOONGY FACE!" Go forth, and make your favorite child laugh out loud.
