Description

Book Synopsis

From the author of the I'm Trying to Love series comes a picture book that dives headfirst into what screen time does to our brains and what we can do about it.

You have a brain! And your brain might love screens a little too much.

What happens when screen time leaves us feeling tired, angry and frustrated -- or even makes it harder to control our impulses? Just like our bodies can react to too much sugary junk food (sugar crash, anyone?) our brains can react to too much junk tech!

In Brain vs. Screen, Bethany Barton breaks down how dopamine affects our relationship with screens, what too much screen time does to our brains, and how to know when we've had enough.
