New Girl's Max Greenfield Writes a Book for Kids Who Don't Like to Read

Actor and writer Max Greenfield
Actor and writer Max Greenfield

Max Greenfield is an actor who’s appeared in movies and sitcoms including Veronica Mars, The Neighborhood and Modern Men, and co- starred on the popular sitcom New Girl. During our first year of COVID-19 Max and his wife homeschooled their two children, and much of that was chronicled on social media which inspired him to write a children’s book. Max refocused his comedic acting energy into a quirky and irreverent book called I Don’t Want to Read this Book. Max admits that he was not a strong reader as a child so his book is meant to get reluctant readers to pick up a book and to not feel bad about themselves if they aren’t good readers yet.
