Thank you so much to @strangelymagic for this copy of her latest book, Sammy Versus the Smartphone, as well as a box of Sammy and Hollis goodies! Hollis is the AI app on Sammy's new smartphone, so the goodies come in two very distinct flavours... ⚽💄

Mini bookworm is loving this new book from @strangelymagic and @TinyTreeBooks! Perfect timing before she heads off to secondary school. Sammy’s life is taken over by her first smartphone and it makes her life worse, not better... Perfect for ages 9 to 12. #kidlit #smartphones
