In the tradition of The Stupids, Meet the Dullards is a clever and irreverent picture book about a comically boring family, from bestselling author Sara Pennypacker and illustrator Daniel Salmieri.

Their home is boring. Their food is plain. Their lives are monotonous. And Mr. and Mrs. Dullard like it that way.

But their children—Blanda, Borely, and Little Dud—have other ideas. . . .

Never has dullness been so hilarious than in this deadpan, subversive tale.

One family’s quest for ultimate boredom. Three kids with a secret talent for fun.

• Absurd Humor: Mr. and Mrs. Dullard prefer watching paint dry to going on adventures and consider beige the most exciting color.
• Books About Being Different: While their parents try to make life as monotonous as possible, Blanda, Borely, and Little Dud are secretly looking for a little excitement.
• Family Stories: Join the Dullards, a family so committed to being boring they’ll move house to escape colorful leaves and a neighbor bearing cake.
• Creativity for Kids: A clever, deadpan story that celebrates the joy of play, imagination, and finding the circus even when you’re not supposed to.
