📱 About the Book

Harold gets sucked into the validation of screens and social media, neglecting his real-world friendships until they start to fracture.

Harold Mitchell is thirteen years old and officially addicted to the dopamine hit of a notification. He starts living entirely through his phone, ignoring the people right in front of him until he misses out on something truly important.

This is the story of what happens when the virtual world takes over, and the hilarious, disconnected reality of learning how to put the screen down.
