New Arrival: Picture Book: Warning: Do Not Open This Book! by Adam Lehrhaupt & Matthew Forsythe
Warning: Do Not Open This Book!
Adam Lehrhaupt, illustrated by Matthew Forsythe
ISBN: 9781442435827
Naive art, interactive storytelling, interactive physicality of book.
This book is too cute, and a great addition to The Monster at the End of the Book, which is one of my all-time favorite classic childhood reads.
In a similar fashion, the reader is implored to stay out of the book, but as the pages turn the narrator gets more and more frantic; monkeys are appearing, and crocodiles, and bananas! Bananas? Yep. A fun "interactive" trap at the end sorts everything out and preps the book (don't open the book!) for the next wild animal escape attempt.
