What would happen if we went out for a walk and left our phones at home? This is the basis for Babbit & Joan. Babbit leaves her tired phone ,Joan, at home when she goes for a walk. She discovers things she has never seen and heard before.

A very cute story about what happens when we can't use our cell phones. Babbit struggles when he has to find his way through the forest without the GPS and when he can't call anyone for help, but he also discovers how much he was missing while keeping his eyes all the time on his phone. The nature around, the sounds, new friends.

Sanlema | 12 outras críticas | May 29, 2020 | Babbit the Rabbit has never left Joan at home before. Does he dare go out without her? How will he know what to do? What if he gets lost?
Well first off, you need to know this... Joan is Babbit’s cell phone.
This book has a good message overall. It’s a picture book intended I assume for children, but my hope is that young children who enjoy picture books aren’t plugged into a cell phone.
Here’s the story...
One day, the phones are feeling overworked so they go on strike. Babbit decides to let his friend, Joan have a break, so he puts her to bed for a nap and heads out into the world. Without Joan’s help, he quickly becomes lost. As he is wandering around, he meets other creatures who are also lost because their phones have been misplaced or broken. As they make their way back to civilization, they see all sorts of things they hadn’t noticed when they had their noses buried in their devices. After a pleasant and meaningful time together, the new friends part ways and make plans to meet again.
When Babbitt gets home he notices his neighbors haven’t moved since he left hours ago. They are in the same position holding their cell phones to their ears. He realizes that no one has even missed him. The pictures of the neighbors as an elephant, a giraffe, pigs and ground hogs are quite cute.
The moral of he “fable” is... put down your phone and go outside to explore and see wha you are missing in life.
But, would a picture book make one abandon the cell phone? I don’t know, but it makes you think.
Thank you to NetGalley and Flyaway Books for providing me this cute and relevant book.… (mais)
