Spongeheadz: U & MEdia
Spongeheadz: U & MEdia is the essential parent handbook for 21st century media. It turns your remote control into a teaching tool, offering a topic about each button. Thee Color button discusses the importance of on-screen diversity to our kids. (That's why you'll find drawings by children of every color and nationality inside these pages.) The Select button is about advertising that targets children. And in a satiric nod to a network that doesn't seem to offer any, the Balance button is about news. And so on. There is no other book on family television viewing quite like this one. Spongeheadz: U & MEdia presents facts and trends in an engaging format-it offers activities, Web sites, resources, quotes from kids and other V.I.P.s, and info to make watching TV a truly interactive experience, rather than a passive assault on your senses. (And your wallet.)
Here's what experts are saying about Spongeheadz: U & MEdia.
"Media literacy is no longer a choice-it's a necessity. This book will set you on the right path to making sure your kids are always smarter-and know they're smarter-than the TV."
Linda Ellerbee, Executive Producer and Host, Nick News
"Spongeheadz rocks!"
Rob Williams, Ph.D., President, Action Coalition for Media Education (ACME)
