I Love To Be Bored
Ingrid Chabbert, illustrated by Sebastien Chebret
Age range 3 to 6
Boredom can be a meditation. Boredom can be fun! Or, so thinks the main character of the picture book I Love to be Bored. When she's bored, she loves it — her mind wanders and she can notice the world with fresh eyes.
This delightful book espouses the concept that boredom can equal mental freedom, an idea that is especially important for children whose over-scheduled lives and too much screen-time rarely allow time for much-needed, beautiful...boredom!
