Don't Push the Button!: A Funny Interactive Book For Kids

This book is an absolute hit with my son. He laughs every single time we read it. The interactive parts keep him completely engaged as he presses the button, shake the book, and see what happens next. It’s simple, colorful, and so much fun to read together. The illustrations are bright and adorable, and the humor is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers. It has quickly become a bedtime favorite in our house. I highly recommend it for any little one who loves funny and interactive stories.

Absolutely hysterical and engaging. Toddlers will LOVE this book!

I grabbed "Don't Push the Button!" knowing my daughter loves books where she can interact and feel like she's part of the action. This one was a total home run. The whole idea of being told not to do something, and then getting to do it anyway, is just peak comedy for her at this age. She gets this wonderfully impish look on her face right before she "pushes" the button on the page, and the silly things that happen to Larry (the monster) as a result make her shriek with laughter. What I Liked (Pros): Makes Reading Active: My daughter feels like she’s really in charge. She enthusiastically shakes the book, pretends to tickle Larry, and, of course, smashes that illustrated button with gusto. Guaranteed Giggles: The playful defiance is a huge part of the fun. She loves the anticipation of what will happen next after she "pushes." Easy for Her to Follow: The words are simple, and there aren't too many per page. She’s even started to recognize some of the repeated words, which is a nice little bonus for her early reading journey. Sparks Her Own Ideas: Even though the book guides the interaction, she often makes up her own little sound effects or tells me what else she thinks might happen to Larry. What I Didn't Love So Much (Cons): It's a Great Gag, But It's One Gag: The button is the central theme, and while the results are different each time, the core concept is the same. She isn't bored yet, but I can see how some kids might want more variety after many reads. Definitely a "Daytime" Read for Us: This one gets her pretty energized with all the giggling and movement, so it's not our first pick for winding down before bed. FYI: The Button is a Picture: Just so other parents know, it's an illustration, not a physical button. My daughter didn't seem to care one bit and played along happily, but it's worth mentioning. Overall: This book is just brilliant for a fun, engaging read-aloud. If your kiddo enjoys being a little mischievous and seeing funny outcomes, they'll probably be as charmed by Larry as mine is. It’s a regular request in our reading rotation now.

Darling book! interactive and fun!

My 3 year old grandson's new favorite book. He wants to have it read to him about 10X a day and has it memorized by now. He LOVES this book. A real winner!

This is a very fun, interactive book to read!

I never do reviews.. but this is a special thing. Almost return this book, because the picture of Larry is not christian. However, my son found the book before returning it. We have so much fun with this book. Is very silly and fanny. As I said my only thing is the picture i do not agree with that. But other than that is a great book.

This was such a great choice for my 7 year old grandson. I get a little groaning when I tell him he needs to read me two books before he gets his snack. He read this book and loved it and then he asked to read it again and when his mom picked him up he read it to her. Winner

O livro é incrível. A história deixa os pequenos leitores curiosos pra saber o que acontece se apertar o botão. Recomendo!

Mi bebé ama este libro!! Se muere de risa

This is one of the lovely, engaging books for toddlers. They will keep wanting to read this over and over.

My 3yo loves the interactive nature of this book. She loves pushing the button (beep) and shaking the book. Short but fun a great choice to share with younger readers.

Fantastic books for kids. It’s funny and interactive, cause they have to push the bottom and scratch Larry’s belly. My kid is 15 months and maybe it’s a bit too early but he already interacts with it. The quality of the book is better than expected, inside it’s cardboard but outside the covered is reinforced. A bit larger format that Oder kids’ books. I would recommend it with no doubt!
