How will a group of teenagers react when they are offered £1,000 to give up their mobile phone? Acclaimed author Keren David spins a thought-provoking story of perspective and influence. Could you disconnect from your phone for six weeks? An eccentric entrepreneur has challenged Esther's year group to do just that, and the winners will walk away with GBP1,000. For Esther, whose dad, sister and baby nephew live thousands of miles away in New York, the prize might be her only chance to afford flights for a visit … But can she really stay disconnected for long enough to win? Particularly suitable for readers aged 11+ with a reading age of 8.
