The Reading Warehouse

This Book is Sad is not only a book you can READ, this is a book that has FEELINGS. Don't be surprised if you're asked to tickle a page, or clap hands with the pages to make it smile. It's true Normal rules don't apply to This Book. So turn each page and be ready for anything

This Book is Sad. is a part of a broader series of interactive conversation books. Easy reading pages are written for those who are just learning, and for those who are reluctant to read. The conversation between the author and reader creates a bond that makes the reader feel important, noticed, and connected to the story.

The THIS BOOK series breaks all the rules by instructing the reader to use the book as a tool for "outside the book" action items such as singing, clapping, or measuring. These action items are strategically used to engage new types of readers who may enjoy seeing a book as not only something to read, but as something to physically play with as well.

THIS BOOK series is part of the collection of new 21st century stories called "The Road to 1000 stories"

#300 - Can You Turn This Book Into A Song?
