The Boring Book 《好无聊啊，好无聊》
“I’m bored!” We’ve all heard children say it before. But how do we reply?
The Boring Book is a humorous picture book that follows the story of one particularly bored boy. He discovers there's more to boredom than what meets the eye ― more questions, more theories, and heaps of humour. This exploration of boredom from acclaimed author-illustrator Shinsuke Yoshitake playfully ― and hilariously ― unpacks the ways in which a seemingly stagnant state is actually a portal into a dynamic, creative world that let them see different perspectives. Yoshitake’s distinctive illlustrations also promote visual literacy and show young readers the process of creative thinking.
The unique comic format, fast pace, wit, and narrative approach makes it ideal for both children and adults!
