Old Macdonald Had a Phone

(Online Safety Picture Book)

Jeanne Willis 

Waterstones Says

Sing along to the tune of Old Macdonald had a Farm, and learn to put down your phone in this hilarious cautionary tale for a new generation of phone-users. Old Macdonald loves his phone: it helps him organise his farm. But when the animals each get one of their own, they are soon on their phones all day - "Here a tweet, there a chat, WhatsApping the farm cat" - and before they know it, no work is getting done! What can Old Macdonald do?

From the award-winning partnership of Jeanne Willis and Tony Ross, the fourth in the series of picture books exploring online issues.

Everyone says his task is impossible, but Aubrey will never give up and never surrender - even if he must fight the unkillable Spirit of Despair itself: the TERRIBLE YOOT!
