About this item
Poo on you! Literally. Fontaine the pigeon is fed up with screen-obsessed humans’ obliviousness to the world, so he convenes a meeting of the birds. Their unanimous decision: Drop poo on malefactors who glance down at phones. “Targets” will be forced to look up after bombardment! Following the first “hit,” a mother quickly glances up, curious about “that bizarre scream,” because Fontaine has issued a battle cry―“VIVA LA REVOLUTION!” No screen remains untouched because, when someone glances down, “a glob of bird poop” knocks their phone to the ground. Finally, a child says, “I think these birds want us to give these phones a rest.” Everyone realizes they’ve forgotten nature, the importance of using their words―and each other. The moral: Thank the birds, and “when you are outside, keep your phone in your pocket…and your eyes up and wide.” Children will giggle at this tongue-in-cheek rhyming tale, set in New Orleans, and will hopefully get the point, which applies to adults, too: Screen time should be minimized and engaging with the world optimized. While the consequences outlined here are mined for exaggerated humor, this serious idea should spark conversations. The colorful, graphic novel–like illustrations are appealing and incorporate creative typefaces and speech bubbles; human characters are diverse. Much-needed encouragement to look up and see the world! (Picture book. 5-8)
