About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when they notice their child becoming a 'screen zombie' or when the transition away from digital devices has become a daily battleground. It serves as a gentle, humorous mirror for families struggling to balance technology with real world presence. The story follows a tiny mouse who gets lost in the infinite distractions of an iPhone, illustrating how digital immersion can lead us to miss out on the beauty of the physical world and the people right in front of us. While the book functions as a clever parody of a classic circular tale, it carries deep emotional weight regarding mindfulness and gratitude. It is ideally suited for children ages 4 to 10, providing a non-preachy way to discuss the concept of 'zoning out.' Parents will appreciate how it turns a potential lecture into a shared laugh, making it easier to set healthy boundaries around screen time without the usual friction.
