Mr. Patches is bored! That's the long and short of it. Every day feels like it's a chore. Where are the adventures that he has never had? One day, Mr. Patches makes a pact with himself. For a whole week, he will give boredom the slip! From riding out on the range on a moose, to winning first prize for "Cat with Best Hair." ​This fun-filled book, for children ages 4 and up, shows boredom in a new light: not an endless series of dull days, but rather, an infinite source of inspiration and possibilities.
