Putting the tablet down can feel really hard — especially when you’re having so much fun.
In this relatable and empowering read-aloud from Growing Pages Books, five-year-old Aubree loves playing video games on her tablet. When it’s time to turn it off, Aubree feels frustrated and upset — a feeling so many children know well. With gentle guidance and encouragement, Aubree learns to pause, take a breath, and try something new.
Through comforting storytelling and real moments children recognize, Aubree discovers that trying is brave — and every try helps us grow.
