Blackout
by John Rocco
A young girl and her family lived in the big city. She wanted to play a board game with them, but everyone was too busy using the computer, watching television, and talking on the phone. Then, suddenly all the lights went out in the city. Because it was a hot and sticky, the family decides to go outside and they notice the stars in the sky, talk with their neighbors on the street, and were able to spend time together as a family. The lights returned and everything went back to normal, but not completely.
I was drawn to this book in the library because the cover intrigued me. I loved the pictures of this book as well as the theme. It focused on making sure we noticed the small things and take time with our family doing things together.
