Babies and Magazines

Meddy uses text to direct and fill in the reader on what we should be taking away from the baby's struggles. The baby touches a magazine and is disappointed to find that it doesn't move, turn to a new page, or interact with her. She tests a different page and rationalizes that it must be her, she is the problem in this situation. Therefore she tests her pointer finger...no, that's not it. When given a ipad however, the picture moves and responds with every touch of her chubby, inexperienced, baby hands. This is relevant to writing because it is a clear example of technology replacing the printed page and how children are growing up with this switch in culture.
