A Kids Book About Boredom (view book)

Full Book Description:

We all know what it’s like to feel bored—you must be pretty bored if you're reading the back of this book! But did you know that being bored is actually one of the most wonderful and powerful things in life? Some of the best things ever created or discovered happened when someone was bored. It’s true! With this book, kids can learn to embrace and discover the benefits of boredom and realize their full potential.

About the Author:

Kyle is an artist—but what does that mean? He paints things of all shapes and sizes in his studio and on large buildings. He believes creating space to be bored is the best way to inspire new ideas. When not bored, Kyle keeps busy by helping raise his two daughters with his wife, Amanda, in Dallas, Texas.
