Review: Dot by Randi Zuckerberg

 

Dot is a cute little picture book by Randi Zuckerberg. Randi is the sister of Mark Zuckerberg (founder of Facebook). Here she writes a little story about Dot, a young girl who is very tech savvy. She can text, swipe, post and tag but like most parents, they want their children to go outside and play.


Does Dot know how to play outside? Does she remember?










I think this is a very cute book and it is so apt for the little generation of kids coming through.

Kids these days are inundated with iPads, tablets and smart phones. Yet, it is also so important to expose young children to running, jumping and social interactions.

The best thing about this book is the parallel interactions (like in the two pictures) and the message that Randi wants to impart on us.

Dot will be a fun and enlightening read filled with neat illustration.
