{"product_id":"i-am-not-boring-isbn-9780593838297","title":"I Am Not Boring","description":"\u003cb\u003eThe funniest (and totally not boring) picture book about a log that has ever existed, full of scientific facts and delightfully silly storytelling\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat’s so special about a log? It just sits there and does nothing. How boring! However, you may be surprised to learn that logs are anything but boring—they are an essential part of life in the forest. Logs provide shelter, become food, and even turn into a safe place for a new tree to grow.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTold with humor and heart, \u003ci\u003eI Am Not Boring\u003c\/i\u003e shows how an old log is not, in fact, boring at all. This endearing, goofball picture book by author-illustrator Lena Podesta is subversive humor at its best. Factual back matter about log lifecycles is also included. While readers are giggling along, they're learning about the importance of ecosystems—and believing in themselves.“An eye opener for readers who think that a log ‘doesn’t do anything but sit in a forest.’ . . . The jaunty banter between the narrator and the log will elicit chuckles while offering a potentially eye-opening revelation: Even seemingly static environments are often teeming with life. . . . Animated and informative.”\u003cb\u003e—\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eLena Podesta\u003c\/b\u003e has been working as an artist in the animation industry and as an illustrator for more than two decades.
