The Boring Book

(2) PS "I'm bored. So bored!" A high-energy child is stymied by a lack of interest in TV or toys until curiosity prevails: "Wait--what makes things boring? Why am I bored? What does 'boring' mean, anyway?" Thinking about boring things turns out to be surprisingly entertaining. Potential answers spark more questions and imaginative conclusions. The clean, attractive art and clever details in this Japanese import create a thought-provoking exploration into boredom, its triggers, and its antidotes.
