This is not a book; it's more like Diary of a Wimpy Kid do it yourself journal. And really, it kept me from getting bored while mom got her eyebrows plucked, but that's a different story.

i love big nate! big nate is super duper extra super cool. he is the coolest guy on earth, except for my daddy. this book has a lot of activities like super scribble. super scribbles are where you scribble and then yo make a drawing like an elephant on a skateboard.

[Melissa Namba · Rating 4 out of 5]

this is a great book for when you have to take a kid on a long car drive. there are lots of activities. they are not overly repetitive so kids shouldn't get bored. some of them will take a good amount of time. nothing is so brain busting that it will make parents look dumb.

[Abbycat · Rating 5 out of 5]

I liked Big Nates boredom buster a lot because it had fun games and activities, questionnaires, comics, and lots of things to do when or if you get bored.

[Nick James · Rating 4 out of 5]

This isn't really a story- a lot like Wimpy Kid's "Do it Yourself" book, it's a fun book with activities to do when you're bored or on a road trip.
Pretty fun for whatever the occasion is, too.

[Sharon · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mostly activities (word searches, codes, crosswords, lists, etc.) with a minimum of plot. Good book for Big Nate fans to take on a vacation. Don't forget a pencil and eraser.

I have it in my family's mini van for when we go on long boring car rides. Like to my grandma's and aunt's,that is 3 1/2 hours long.
