The Day the Screen Went Dark
Ernest, a boy who cannot imagine life without screens, faces his biggest challenge yet: a weekend without electricity. But instead of boredom, he discovers excitement and fun in the real world, in reading comics, playing board games, staying active, and spending time with his family.
This funny and touching story carries an important message about the need to strike a balance between the virtual world and real life.
