From the publisher

This book can read your mind. I will just need you to think of something, but whatever you do, don’t think of anything SILLY. You know, like a pink elephant . . .When the page is turned, sure enough, a pink elephant appears! This funny interactive book plays on the idea that when you’re told NOT to think of something, somehow it is all you can think about. What if the scientist tells you not to think of the elephants on unicycles playing the tuba? Or wearing silly underpants?! Or something even ruder than that . . .? As the book continues, and more and more silliness ensues, the scientist is distraught but there is plenty of fun in store for the reader. This is a hilarious book to occupy young children who are cooped up indoors. “Our 4yo’s response to this at story time involves much jumping around in giddy anticipation of the next page turn.” –parent review
