America's Mom's Choice Gold Medal Award
A favorite book for children aged 2 to 4!
There is only one rule in Larry's book, and that is --
Don't ever press the button!
Even though this button looks funny,
And definitely don't press the button!
Can you do it?
But who knows what will happen when you press the button?
Well, while no one is looking,
Quickly press it gently...
Oh, no—
Satisfy children's curiosity.
The best picture book to enhance parent-child interaction!

Readers' response
Whether it's asking kids to press buttons, shake the book, or even tickle Larry's tummy, it's a fun design that's perfect for reading with many kids. Atlanta Parent
I think this is a book that even adults will enjoy reading. My two-and-a-half-year-old son always reads from the beginning without hesitation. ──Jazz, a Japanese Amazon reader
It’s so much fun telling your kids “never push the button”! The whole book has a lot of repetitive fun and simple but colorful illustrations, making it very suitable for children aged two to six. ── Parenthood.com
