This book is about NOTHING! Zilch, zero, absolutely nothing. Rio, our main character, is adamant that their story will be peaceful and uninterrupted. The only thing is ... more and more characters want to come into the book, leading to, of course, chaos! From dragons with magician's hats to unicorns who can play the piano, this hilarious story has an important post-pandemic social message of making friends as an introvert and having fun with others. This Book is About Nothing is written by 14-year-old debut author Marco Anderson, who dreamt up a book that turned from nothing into everything. Erica Salcedo's vibrant illustrations mimic this experience, starting very minimalistic and simple and turning into visual chaos on the page.
