2018

It is an educational fairy tale about the wonders of technology: a computer, a cell phone, a tablet, and so on, about how important it is to use it properly. The action is takes place in the Wonderland of Technic where there is a dispute: which of the most modern devices are the most important? Peter’s grandmother is also involved in the dispute. She isn‘t happy with smart equipment and, if she could, send them all to the moon! Because her grandson has forgotten the sport, the book, he all the time is spending to the computer and the phone. Even Peter’s health got worse: his eyes were weakened, his back hurts! What to do? To be or not to be technical wonders? The Time Wise resolves the discord. He explains that modern technology is a great way to make life easier however it is necessary for children to write rules and advice.
