This book presents the alternative to sitting and Googling . . . actually reading a book! Here’s a list of suggestions of things that you could be doing instead of being on your phone. They are broken down into categories—nature, science, history, geography, words and language, food, sports and fitness, the arts, etiquette, and games:
