Henry’s Tech Free Trip – Children’s Book

In the fast-paced world of smartphones, tablets, and endless digital distractions, Henry’s Tech-Free Trip is the first and only children’s book to create a narrative around screen time and its potentially negative effects. This relatable tale follows Henry, a curious child navigating the world of technology.

This book not only engages young readers with its amusing plot but also equips parents with essential tools to navigate the challenges of today’s tech-savvy world. Through Henry’s endearing journey, readers are reminded of the fun that can be had when we choose to put screens away.

Based on the family of co-author Kylen Ribeiro, Henry’s Tech-Free Trip narrates the conversation between Kylen and her own children about staying mindful of screen time and enjoying technology in moderation, to limit exposure to blue light and EMF radiation–the “invisible energy that leaks from electronic devices.”

Henry’s Tech-Free Trip could not have happened without Daniel T. DeBaun, and Ryan DeBaun, authors of Radiation Nation (a great resource for adults) and co-founders of DefenderShield, whose dedication and passion for informing others about the potential harmful effects of digital technology inspired us to break down a hard-to-understand issue for those who need to know about it the most: The digital natives of the new generation.
