What happens when kids feed all their thoughts, dreams, and belly button lint into a wondrously magical tree that thrives on digital attention? They feel amazing... until they don't.

The Liking Tree is a subversive picture book about children, technology, and the strange places our screens can take us. Offering a satirical spin on the dark side of screen time - from selfie obsession to FOMO to online outrage, this modern fable helps kids (and parents) reflect on their digital habits-with laughs along the way.

In 2020, The Liking Tree debuted as a bold parody of Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree, offering a sharp critique of social media's impact on young minds. The second edition is a full visual reimagining - featuring all-new, laugh-out-loud illustrations by the author that are wilder, weirder, and more wickedly on-point-making every page burst with visual irony and sharp satirical wit.

It also kicks off the Screen Time Tales series-a collection of cheeky, cautionary fables about kids, screens, and digital overload.

Themes include:

• Screen Time Overload
• Kids and Social Media
• FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)
• Online Validation
• Emotional Regulation
• Unplugged Living
• Tech Habits

A modern fable and unauthorized parody of The Giving Tree-if that tree craved likes, threw tantrums, and gaslit children for fun.

This newly illustrated edition replaces the original 2020 version and officially launches the Screen Time Tales series.

Laugh. Unplug. Repeat.
