Publisher's Synopsis
Greg is endlessly JOLLY and EXCEEDINGLY cool...and one of the most popular guys in school. On the day he turns from 9 to 10 he throws a party for the ages and receives a present that changes everything-a phone that can do absolutely anything. By the time summer ends and school rolls around, everyone in school has a phone too...and soon, the impacts creep in everywhere. An absolute joy to read, Cool Jolly Greg is a funny, vibrant story for all school-age children about the importance of personal connection, play, and presence in the moment. Author Kelly Basinger is a husband and father of three who approaches every aspect of his life (whether business or pleasure) with joy and optimism, a thirst for knowledge, and a yearning for personal growth and achievement. As an avid reader with a passion for creative writing, he is thrilled to introduce this fun and reflective look at how the pervasiveness of phones and social media come with many unintended consequences, especially for today's younger generations who have never known any different.
