📘 2030

by Amy Zuckerman

The breezy narrative follows one boy through a typical day, highlighting many interesting aspects of his world. Fanciful cartoon drawings show a lively and appealing world full of new and intriguing activities that correspond neatly to modern equivalents.

Recreational activities include magnetized hovering skateboards and a virtual-reality "Fanta-trek Center."
