This Book Is Not a Present

By: Max Greenfield

Narrated by: Max Greenfield

A hilarious picture book companion to I Don't Want to Read This Book by actor Max Greenfield, adapted for audio!

We all know kids who carry a book everywhere they go. Kids who can't stop reading, even if it's long after bedtime. Kids who love nothing more than sitting quietly in the corner, turning page after page...

This book is a love letter to all the other kids. The ones who wouldn't dream of asking for a book as a present. The ones who unwrap the box hoping to find anything—a dog, a skateboard, even socks—besides a book.

Packed with clever, fourth-wall-breaking gags from Max Greenfield (New Girl), this ideal listen may not wag its tail or come with wheels, but it's sure to have even the most reluctant bibliophiles laughing all the way to the end.

Critic reviews

Praise for This Book Is Not a Present:

“Rollicking good humor and the celebrity shine of the first book will ensure that this book is requested over and over again.” —School Library Journal

“Joke-filled . . . Boisterous . . . Goofy.” —Kirkus Reviews

“With cartoon-like graphics and bold typography, this book will get a laugh out of reluctant readers!” —Brightly

Here for anything Max Greenfield will read!

I bought and read it for my 4 year-old and my 16 and 18 year-olds said they’d love to hear Max Greenfield read it so I came to Audible. We loved it. But yeah, a whole credit is a bummer to use on it. Definitely thankful for the smile it put on our faces!

Cute story

I love Schmidt from the show New Girl. Very cute. Wish it wasn’t a whole credit for a 5 minute book though.
