The Screen-Time Monster - Paperback

Leo gets a shiny new tablet for Christmas. He loves it so much that he barely notices the tiny green screen-time monster that appears on his shoulder.

But the more Leo watches, the bigger the monster grows. Soon it’s shouting “Just one more!” at breakfast, when getting ready for school, and even at bedtime.

Can Leo and his family find a better balance so screen time becomes a treat, not a tantrum?

The Screen-Time Monster is a funny story about routines, self-control, and enjoying time together. Perfect for home or classroom, The Screen-Time Monster turns screen-time struggles into a playful, relatable tale that encourages children to practise boundaries, routines, and self-regulation.
