That's Not Fair

From the author of The Boring Book, a New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book, comes a delightfully comical story about being a kid in an adult's world where so many things seem unfair

Why can't a kid eat cookies right before bed? Why do adults get to stay up late while kids have to go to bed early? And why do adults say, "Not now " right when kids want to play? In this humorous picture book from acclaimed author-illustrator Shinsuke Yoshitake, one very patient father offers increasingly imaginative explanations for his kid's complaints. The result? A more-than-fair, laugh-out-loud reading experience for all
