This is Not My Story by Ryan Uytdewilligen and David Huyck - ADVISABLE

This is Not My Story by Ryan Uytdewilligen and David Huyck. PICTURE BOOK. Kids Can Press, 2023. 9781525303432

BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE


The author has begun to write the story, but the main character is buying any of it. Genre after genre, the two try out different stories, but the character doesn’t feel right in any of them.  Just when they run out of ideas, the character, who is not named Carl, realizes what this particular story is all about.

Uytdewilligen has created a cute picture book about genres. It is fun to see a new one of these every few years. Check your current books of this type and see if you need a new one.

The main character is Black.
