This Book is Definitely Not Cursed by Megan Woodward and Risa Rodil - OPTIONAL

This Book is Definitely Not Cursed by Megan Woodward, illustrated by Risa Rodil.
PICTURE BOOK. Aladdin (Simon), 2024. $19. 9781665927987

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (k-3), EL - OPTIONAL

APPEALS TO: SOME

The monster inside the book has tricked you into reading it and now you are cursed! You must follow all of the steps exactly, or you will be cursed forever.

10/10 on the silliness scale. Will open up a discussion on what a curse is and whether they are real, however. For a middle school or high school teacher it might be a good way to start a talk about urban legends and supposed curses. Otherwise you can lean into the silliness of it all.
