Book review: Nothing Happens in this Book, by Judy Ann Sadler, illustrated by Vigg

Sadler, Judy Ann.  Nothing Happens in this Book.  Illustrated by Vigg.  Kids Can Press, 2018. ISBN 978-1-77138-737-8. $16.99. 40 pages.  Ages 6-8.  P5 Q5

A goofy pointy headed man tells  me there is nothing at the end of the book, so I should stop reading it…and the color scheme is in yellow and black.  Ok!  I’ll stop!  There isn’t a lot about this book that makes me want to keep reading it except on each page thereafter the goofy little man finds a toy or prop seemingly without an owner.  It isn’t until we get to the end of the book that we find out who all of the stuff belongs too.

Verdict:  This book could be a lot more appealing if the illustrations were cuter and the color scheme was different.  Almost any other color combination.
