Theme: Don't just sit around on your screens, you'll miss out on so much! Silly potato characters, puns and clever illustrations.

An excellent addition to the Bad Seed series by Jory John. Couch Potato realizes that his indoor life is a lot duller than the outside world. This would be a great story to share with elementary students and adults.

Reviewed from a library copy.

My daughter and I are making our way through all of Joey John’s books. Each one is so funny and teach the readers a good lesson. We liked this one because it gets the reader motivated to go outside and enjoy nature instead of being a couch potato! We also get a kick out of the illustrations. 
We would recommend this one to everyone.

تذكير بأن تبتعد عن الشاشات وتذهب لتستكشف العالم من حولك، أن تستبدل عدة أمور اعتدت على القيام بها عن بعد بأن تقوم بها على أرض الواقع، وأنه حتى مع ذلك، لا بأس في قضاء بعض الوقت مسترخيًا أمام شاشة، فالهدف ليس عزلك عنها، فهي ميزة هذا العصر والابتعاد عنها كليّّا يحتمل مساوئ كما يفعل الادمان عليها، وأما الهدف فهو الموازنة حسبما تراه يناسبك أنت كفرد لا مايراه العالم لك. رائع، وإن كان فيه نبرة مبالغة لأجل أن تنال اعجاب الاطفال إلّا أن عبرتها مناسبة للأطفال والكبار على حدٍ سواء.
