Babymouse desperately wants to fit in at her school and notices that everyone has a cell phone except her. But getting a phone isn't the end of Babymouse's problems as 1) she notices technology can have its own burdens to share and 2) she now is obsessed with appearing cool on social media. This hybrid chapter book-graphic novel reads quickly and humorously while containing a subtle message about the potential dangers of technology and the benefits of real-life friendship. (New Jersey Garden State Children's Book Award 2021)
