Publisher's Summary

Oversaturated with the latest video game and phone apps, does anyone slow down to remember a simpler time? 

Join A. J. as she discovers a summer of fun with her mom. The phones stay home while mother and daughter go on simple adventures - discovering four-leaf clovers, animals in the clouds, and lightning bugs in a starlit sky. A Simpler Time is an exceptional tale to share with children age seven through the preteenage years and will inspire you, too, to find some simpler moments during your next family gathering. 

“In this technology frenzy we call life, often, the simple times are taken for granted. Laura Eckroat reminds children of all ages that nature can be as interesting as iPhones and computers.” (Ted Kerasote, author of Merle’s Door: Lessons from a Freethinking Dog)
