It's Sunday afternoon and Charlie's bored. Then he trips over his teddy bear, who, much to his surprise, responds by shouting, "OW!" It turns out that Teddy is bored, too, because Charlie never plays with him anymore. Together they round up the other toys and launch a full-scale attack on boredom, using tubes of paint and kitchen implements as weapons and pot lids as shields. As Charlie and his toys cast boredom out, the blue-gray and white pages begin, bit by bit, to fill with vivid color, capturing the energy of the battle and the mess that ensues. This unique illustration treatment will appeal to young children just learning their colors, and the energetic story will inspire them to approach their old toys with new imagination.
Charlie is bored and everyone is busy doing their things. By using his imagination, he re-discovers what simple items in the house can do to overcome boredom. This skilfully illsutrated book is a delightful treat to young children.
