‘Jugamos?’

This is a story of a little boy who spends most of his time playing on his tablet. So much that he does not hear the invitations to play that he friends and family give him. Rocio Bonilla’s beautiful illustrations show how the little boy when focussing on his game and unaware of what is going on around him is missing out by having him in grey. The world around him is warm and full of colours. His anti-social behaviour is turning him sad and colourless.

It is a great book to show young children how the can be affected by spending too much time on an electronic device.
