Description
In this humorous story about screen-free time, a child and a boredom monster celebrate the power of noticing.
Cameron is faced with a no-screens, very dreary, worst day ever. Oh, the misery! But wait ... maybe there's adventure to be found in boredom after all.
When his ordinary living room transforms into the land of Boredom, Cameron wanders into a bleak landscape where everything seems terribly tedious and drowsily dull. But then a mysterious, friendly monster appears, and Cameron learns to celebrate the silence of a distraction-free world and finds his creative spark.
Co-created by Mariana Ellery and Clara Reschke, this fantastical picture book is perfect for inspiring imaginative play. Reschke's innovative mixed-media art combines photos of ordinary objects with illustrations, creating a world brimming with possibilities.
