On A Magical Do-Nothing Day
WINNER of the 2018 4-11 Picture Book Awards (Fiction 4-7 category)
One of the New York Times Best Illustrated Children’s Books of 2017
All I want to do on a rainy day like today is play my game,
but my mum says it’s a waste of time.
The game drives my mum mad.
She takes it away.
I take it back.
I wish Dad had come with us on this rainy, grey weekend.
Without my game, nothing is fun.
On the other hand, maybe I’m wrong about that…
