Penny Pangolin and the Tablet Turmoil
Narrated by David McCormack, the voice of Bandit Heeler (Bluey's dad) in the hit kids' cartoon show BLUEY!
A timely story in the world of "Penny Pangolin and Friends" addressing screen-time balance, encouraging children to unplug and engage with the world around them.
When Penny receives a hand-me-down tablet, she's thrilled! With it, she can message friends, share photos, and video-call pals from other villages. But before long, Penny finds herself using it more and more...until she starts missing conversations, meals, and even schoolwork. Soon, Penny realizes that too much screentime is pulling her away from the things that really matter-things like nature, friendship, and family moments you can't get through a screen.
Recommended for children ages 3-8, this story offers a gentle wake-up call-not just for kids, but for grown-ups too. It encourages mindful conversations about healthy screen habits and reminds families to unplug and be present with each other. The book also celebrates the wonder of wildlife, spotlighting rare Eastern species like the golden-winged laughingthrush and the critically endangered pangolin.
A bonus section at the back includes fun pangolin facts and an animal seek-and-find, inviting listeners to find animals throughout the illustrated pages. Kids will be enthralled by Penny's adventures. With heart, humor, and a timely message, Penny Pangolin and the Tablet Turmoil inspires families to reconnect with the world...and each other! Have a pango-perfect day!
