Adam didn't feel that remarkable. Other kids seemed to be more popular, smarter and better at sport. Feeling a little less than amazing, he finds happiness on his Touchy Feely tablet. One day, Adam stumbles across an app that not only changes the way he sees himself, but also the world around him.
Touchy Feely is a book about feeling comfortable in our own skins. It was written and illustrated by a Melbourne teacher who frequently goes by the name of Paul Stewart. It is Paul's first children's book and he hopes it appeals to children of all ages... and adults too!
This is more than a story for children. It’s definitely not ‘preachy’ and will appeal to all ages who can relate to the pull to be someone or something than our true selves.
And the pictures just bounce out of each page; it looks amazing and really relate to the unfolding story. Very, very enjoyable to share with the family.

Get this!
Adults will love it too! Has a satirical edge but for the kids, it's simply a funny tale. I wish I had a 'Touchy Feely' tablet.

Wonderful Story
I bought this for my children and they've both read it many times over. The artwork is like nothing you've seen before - a curious mix of drawing and photographs - and the story contains a really positive message.
It's a little strange but we'll worth your time.

Madness with a Message
This book blends technology and fantasy into an amusing tale about a boy who gets more out of his tablet than he planned. The drawings are great.

Best Children's Book Ever
This was the best 99 cents I have ever spent! This book is funny and awesome to look at. It's a bit like the Simpsons as my dad liked it too!
