Produktbeschreibung

The 10th anniversary of the humorous children's read-aloud story that celebrates (and lightly pokes fun at) many of the classic children's story books we know and love-now with bonus content. Max hates his picture books. His room never turns into a forest or a boat, or anything wild! Green ham tastes BAD! Drawing on the walls with a purple crayon lands him in trouble. Nope, every last book has to go in the trash. But wait. What about the one where the little bird returned safely to its nest? That book was the best. And the one with the flying snowman? Or the big stack of turtles? Also good. Just then, Max learns how invaluable the power of magic and his own imagination is, and has a BIG change of heart. Now go away, so Max can read his picture books! Join writer and illustrator Timothy Young as he masterfully blends humor and irreverence, poking fun at, and celebrating, the classics of children's literature. I Hate Picture Books! celebrates the joy of reading, reminding the reader of the immeasurable treasures found within the pages of a book. This 10th anniversary edition of I Hate Picture Books! features an additional 50 famous children's book stories illustrated in the background of the depicted scenes, serving both as Easter eggs for discovery and as a source for new great picture books to put on a reading list.
