This Book Will Not Be Fun, Cirocco Dunlap, Illustrated by Olivier Tallec
A mouse who acts as a careful custodian of his book tries to guarantee his reader some peace and order in spite of escalating chaos.
A book is no place for tomfoolery, and this mouse assures us that his book is to be no exception. Just please ignore that Word-Eating Flying Whale, and--oh, no, the lights have gone out. Wait, what is THAT?! Nothing to fear. Everything is under control. . . .
