Unplugged: Ella Gets Her Family Back

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Penny Weber. Frustrated that her parents and older siblings are constantly preoccupied with their phones, video games, and computers, Ella stages a mild protest that forces her family to re-think things; they institute electronics-free Saturday mornings and Sunday nights. Occasionally awkward but cheery illustrations accompany the didactic, simplistic story, which will resonate with readers nonetheless.
