    Open the book. Pick a page. Make something unordinary.

    From creator Half-Asleep Chris comes a one-of-a-kind collection of 50+ inventive, playful, and quietly brilliant projects that turn everyday materials into something surprising. Inside, you’ll design imaginary worlds, build clever contraptions, experiment with time and motion, and explore ideas that are equal parts creative, curious, and unexpected.

    Create your own transit system. Capture a plant’s life in seconds. Grow a mystery seed just to discover what it becomes. Animate objects so they move on their own. Or make something simply for the joy of destroying it.

    Perfect for rainy days, slow afternoons, and moments when inspiration strikes, The Unordinary Book of Ideas invites readers of all ages to build, test, invent, and see the world a little differently, one unordinary idea at a time.
    Half-Asleep Chris is a British creator, filmmaker, and internet inventor who builds whimsical projects with his cat sidekicks, Ralph, Bella, and Henry. View titles by Half-Asleep Chris
