TITLE: THE BOOK OF RULES

AUTHOR: Brian Gehrlein

ILLUSTRATOR: Tom Knight

PUBLISHER: Farrar Straus Giroux/2021

OPENING LINES: 
 
This book has rules.
You must follow all the rules. If you break the rules, Dennis will eat you. Do you want to be gobbled by Dennis? No? Then you’ll have to listen carefully.

Denis would love to eat YOU! Not to fear. If you follow the rules, you’re in no danger. This clever book that breaks the fourth wall contains 10 basic rules the reader must follow to avoid being eaten. Brian Gehrlein’s text is fun (my favorite word is “applesauciest”), engaging, and hilarious, and Tom Knight’s illustrations are bright, colorful, and detailed. With expressive characters, a hungry (but lovable) monster, illustrated end papers, an under-the-jacket-surprise, a surprise ending, and fun-to-follow rules, this book will make an entertaining read-aloud that kids are sure to love!
