I love it!"" —Brad Montague, New York Times bestselling author of The Circles All Around Us ""A funny, wise, heartfelt, and much-needed story about boredom and so much more. Bored Panda should be required reading for every family!"" —Jarrett Lerner, author-illustrator of Enginerds and A Work In Progress ""Not only do I love pandas, but I love being bored because every fun, creative, mischievous idea I’ve ever had came out of boredom. So be a Bored Panda!"" —Karen McCullah, screenwriter Legally Blonde and Ten Things I Hate About You
