Rita is bored. So, so, so bored.

Flopped in her bedroom, limp and tragic, Rita tries everything to cure her malaise. But time drags on, and there she remains: catatonic with boredom.

If only there were a special place, a non-boring place just for bored people …

From award-winning creator Felicita Sala comes a slyly brilliant ode to boredom and imagination, and a guaranteed antidote to the doldrums.

Bored is a whimsical exploration of one girl's quest to escape her ennui through creativity and discovery.
