From the author of The Boring Book, a New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book, comes a delightfully comical story about being a kid in an adult's world where so many things seem unfair!

Why can't a kid eat cookies right before bed? Why do adults get to stay up late while kids have to go to bed early? And why do adults say, "Not now!" right when kids want to play?! In this humorous picture book from acclaimed author-illustrator Shinsuke Yoshitake, one very patient father offers increasingly imaginative explanations for his kid's complaints. The result? A more-than-fair, laugh-out-loud reading experience for all!

ENCOURAGES CREATIVE THINKING: Kids have been asking "why" since the beginning of time, and this funny book captures that natural curiosity in a clever way. Wildly imaginative scenarios will inspire little readers to ask questions and dream up their own elaborate explanations for the silliness in their lives, sparking conversation, connection, and out-of-the-box thinking.

RISING STAR AUTHOR: Shinsuke Yoshitake's The Boring Book delighted readers and was named a New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book of the Year and Amazon Best Book of the Month. His follow-up, There Must Be More Than That!, similarly met with rave reviews and was selected as both a Kirkus Reviews Best Picture Book and New York Times Notable Book of the Year.

STELLAR READ-ALOUD: Smart, comedic pacing, increasingly imaginative scenarios, and a compelling voice add up to reader (and parent) satisfaction. Great for classroom story time and family reading.

LAUGH-OUT-LOUD HUMOR: Everything in this book is over-the-top. Kids wouldn't want it any other way! There are hilarious moments on every page and ample opportunities for young readers to marvel at the absurdity throughout.

Perfect for:

  • Fans of award-winning author-illustrator Shinsuke Yoshitake
  • Parents, grandparents, caregivers, and teachers
  • Gift-givers seeking a humorous picture book about growing up
  • Adding to the shelf alongside popular books by Taro Gomi, Mo Willems, Jon Klassen, and Mac Barnett
