Seven prepositions (OK, 'down' and 'under' are cheating ). The competition is now open. Do I hear eight anywhere?
If the title of the book had happened to be "About Down Under" then you could have said:

"Dad, why did you bring that book that I didn't want to be read to from about Down Under, 'About Down Under', up for?"
