Whether you've just got your first phone or had a new one, this book will lead you through how your phone works, how to look after it, and how to be safe and thoughtful as you use it. The advice is relevant for all phone users, whatever make or model you might have, and whether it's your first phone or not.

Your new phone is a computer, a camera, a sound system and communicator all rolled in to one-and small enough to fit in your pocket. But you knew all that already! So, what else do you need to know? Where to download apps? How to behave online? And what about phishing, trolling and bots? The answers to all this and more are in this handy guide.

Find out how to manage your phone settings and apps, have fun and keep safe. Learn how to take the best photos, play some games, do homework and get creative, as well as know how to control your privacy and avoid or deal with cyberbullying.

There's also information about setting limits on screen time and how to look up and away and engage with others without a phone.

Suitable for readers age 9+.

Written by expert author and father of two, Tom Jackson. The consultant, Dr Angharad Rudkin, is a child psychologist researching the role that technology has on children and family dynamics

Includes vibrant, modern illustrations from graffiti-style artist Emans.
