The Book That No One Wanted to Read
by Richard Ayoade
High up on a dusty shelf, in a library created by your imagination sits a book. It doesn't want you to read it, because it is scared of the fate that awaits books nobody wants - to be *pulped*. (As an aside this gave me a giggle because the book is primarily narrated by Pulp's Jarvis Cocker)
As the book (voiced by the inimitable Richard Ayoade ) argues why it should be left alone, you, the reader (narrated by Lydia Fox) put forward a case to why the book should be opened.
No spoilers, but this is a funny, heartwarming book filled with empathy, creativity and an extraordinary number of tangents. Ayoade's humour is perfectly balanced by the serious tone of Cocker's narration, and the fourth wall is not just broken - it's shattered as the book invites you along for the ride.
Thoroughly enjoyable kids audiobook, with a fantastic cast.
