I'm (Almost) Never Bored

I'm BORED! wails a little girl after her screen-time is cut short. "That's great!" her dad says with a grin. "Being bored comes right before having a Really Good Idea." After an initial protest the little girl dives into her imagination and takes the reader with her on a whirlwind ride of pure fun. A cardboard box becomes a magical train the washing machine inspires an imaginary trip into space a scribbly doodle becomes a hungry spaghetti monster and ants in the garden lead her into an escapade in the Funny Bug Circus. In a world where children can find entertainment at the touch of a button it's ever-more important that they have time to be bored - because that's where they have the space to come up with their own Really Good Ideas."
