Watchung Booksellers Author Event - Kevin Pyle, "Bad For You: Exposing the War on Fun"

Please join us at Watchung Booksellers for this exciting event featuring Kevin Pyle, author of Bad for You: Exposing the War on Fun!

What is it that modern parents fear? Violent video games? Social media? Dirty hands? These anxieties are nothing new - the stuff in this book goes back centuries - all the way to Plato (yeah, that one) and his worries over the new "technology" of his time (the written word!). Bad for You cleverly exposes the long-standing "campaign against fun" for what it really is - a bunch of anxious adults grasping at straws, ignoring scientific data, and blindly yearning for the good old days that never were. Bad for You presents the facts, the figures and a whole lot more to debunk these myths and give kids the power to prove that there's nothing wrong with having fun - or being young!
