A photography book made by the photographer Robert Frank in 1963 as part of The New York Times "Just for Fun" series. A not-for-sale item given to American booksellers to commemorate the New York Book Fair, it is known as a collector's item. A reprint was published by Steidl in 2008.

The book humorously records Zero Mostel as Frank captured him from a cinematic viewpoint while reading: the "cartoonish" expressions and gestures of bewilderment, surprise and excitement as he sits at a table or on a sofa, absorbed in a book. It recalls his comic acting style, connected to his signature roles such as Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof, Pseudolus in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and Max Bialystock in The Producers. With almost no text and composed solely of photographs, it is a unique visual storybook offering a glimpse of Frank's exploration of moving-image expression.
