When Pebbles the Possum looks up from her screen, she sees the moon shining brightly outside her window. She decides to stop looking up faraway places on her tablet, and visit them in real life instead. But to finish her rocket ship and get to the moon, she'll need some help from her family. If only they could LOOK UP from their screens long enough to help her

Praise for The Little Possum who Looked Up

I am a huge fan of Kim Maslin's cyber safety stories The Little Possum Who Looked Up is another fabulous title to add to my technology themed children's book list. This story is very relatable for kids and adults alike, as it addresses monitoring screen time and learning to be present by spending quality time with the people you love. The rhythmic rhyme of the words make this story flow beautifully - Julie Smith, The Techie Teacher

"We are living in a technological world that allows us to connect, learn and be entertained in unprecedented ways. In this beautiful children's book, Pebbles the Possum gently reminds us that our use of technology needs to be balanced and not displace face to face connection, communication, relationships and experiences. The Little Possum Who Looked Up provides us all with an opportunity to reflect on our use of technology and the wonderful experiences we can share together online and offline." - Kayelene Kerr - Cyber Safety and Digital Wellness Specialist, WA Child Safety Services
