Description

An interactive “bad” book that uses hilarious reverse psychology and gross-out humor to turn rule-breaking kids into lifelong readers who can’t stop turning the forbidden pages

I’m not a good book. I’m a bad one. I trick kids, gross them out, and make them laugh so hard they’ll want to read me again. Oh, and good luck getting kids in the bath after reading me!

Most books want to be your friend. Most books want to teach you a nice lesson about sharing or the solar system. I’m not one of those books.

In The Bad Book for Good Kids, the narrator is a self-proclaimed troublemaker who tries to drive its readers bonkers by doing everything a “good” book shouldn’t, like setting page traps or using hilarious distractions. This rule-breaking story uses reverse psychology to make every page turn a victory for the reader. It’s a high-energy experience that proves sometimes being “bad” is the best way to get kids to love reading, perfect for parents, teachers, and anyone looking to spice up storytime with a little bit of mischief.

Just whatever you do . . . DO NOT read it again. Who knows what might happen?! (It could be BAD.)
