IF YOU GIVE A MOUSE AN IPHONE

Ann Droyd

A Cautionary Tale

If you give a bored little mouse your iPhone in order to quiet him down while you take care of a few things.
He’s probably going to become hopelessly hypnotized. And if he becomes hopelessly hypnotized by that mesmerizing little screen, chances are he’s going to miss everything going on around him. And he won’t even realize you are taking him on a special trip. And if he doesn’t have a clue where he is, he’s probably going to get into a little bit of trouble.

A hilarious twist on a classic children’s favorite, IF YOU GIVE A MOUSE AN iPHONE is an astute commentary on the perils of our tech-obsessed lives, and a witty and wildly entertaining read for all ages.

Ann Droyd—also the pseudonym for David Milgrim—is the author of Goodnight iPad, which Blue Rider Press published in October 2011. To date, we’ve sold over 400,000 combined print and e copies of that title (65% of the sales were print books). Three years post-pub, Goodnight iPad continues to sell at huge levels. Just as Goodnight iPad was a parody of a children’s classic—Goodnight Moon—our new book is also a modern twist on a classic: in this case the If You Give a Moose a Muffin series of books by Laura Numeroff. However, as with Goodnight iPad, you don’t need to know anything about the original to thoroughly enjoy Ann Droyd’s adorable and entertaining books. These books will work in any technology-obsessed country.

In this tech-savvy parody of the contemporary classic If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, a hyperactive pet mouse named Applesauce goes off the deep end (literally) while mesmerized with his boy's iPhone.
