Title: The Most Boring Book Ever

Author: Bandon Sanderson

Illustrator: Kazu Kibuishi

Genre:  Picture Book

Rating: 2/5

Review: 
I went into this book knowing what it was supposed to be and yet I find it lacking. 

I love Sanderson… and have no doubt he could write a good children’s book. This however is not it.

The premise is cute, but the title is correct. The writing is boring. In fact the only reason I know it’s Sanderson is the name on the front. But this could be written by ANYONE. 

Kibuishi is the one that makes this book. Their illustrations are beautiful. Still they weren’t unique enough to pull off the satire that this book was supposed to be. 

Still I didn’t struggle to get through it. So, two stars for Kibuishi’s wonderful work!
