Think again, the title is not a metaphor: this is truly the worst book in the world. Governor General's Literary Award recipient author-illustrator Elise Gravel takes readers on an unexpected journey through the most ridiculous book to ever exist!

The characters in the story are quickly annoyed by the author's lack of imagination ... They therefore rebel against her figures of speech which lack bite and her bad choices by hurling insults at her in order to attract his attention and guide the story in a more interesting direction. They have nothing to lose since they are stuck in the book for eternity anyway.
