About This Book
Book Details
Perfect for fans of The Book with No Pictures and Dragons Love Tacos, A Story No One Has Ever Heard Before is a laugh-out-loud debut picture book that encourages kids to explore their own creativity by telling three whimsically witty and gloriously goofy stories at the same time.
Once upon a time there was a story no one has ever heard before, inspired by a carrot on the run, a knight who’d trade his sword for a pal, and an alien who just wants to get some rest and relaxation. It’s a story about how to tell a story.
From choosing a main character to crafting a problem for your hero to solve, readers will learn storytelling tools while going on a wonderfully wacky adventure in this playful and interactive read-aloud from author-illustrator Avi Steinberg.
