JANICE: When I visit schools, I tell students that there are too many exciting things to do and see in this world to ever get bored. And they are not on a screen, except for e-books. Try some of them:
Watch the sun set and make a painting. Here is one that Tom made of a sunset in the Puget Sound for our picture book-in-progress, Whale Ferry Tale.
Learn to play a musical instrument like young Antonio in our picture book biography, I, Vivaldi.
Talk to horses like Young Wolf in this illustration from A Mare for Young Wolf.
Read a book like Son of Spirit Horse, the story of two boys who both want to win the horse race at the tribal fair. Neither Young Wolf, on the left, nor Little Big Mouth, on the right, can imagine what he will win and lose. Can you?
Come up with your own ideas and post them here.
Just remember that bored is a five letter word! Don't make it part of your vocabulary.
