"Mr. Book with No Story wants no pictures, stories, happy endings, words, laughs, tears, or thrills between his covers. None. Zero. Zilch. He is a story-free zone, he declares, and will only tell us what he's not going to tell us. But Mr. Book's pages have other ideas, and he can't control them no matter how hard he tries. Little by little, they coax a story out of the reluctant storyteller, but you have to help." --book jacket
