This book was very interesting it talked about the benefits and disadvantage of technology. For instance I show how phones could help children in certain situations and how they are harmful. One example was a girl who made plans with her friends. Since she was late she had to call her friends but with out a self phone her friends left with out her because she couldn't contact them in time.
