Henry is obsessed with video games and nothing else. When his parents limit access to the gaming device he meets a strange advisor on the web. How can this entity that resembles a clown take influence on his life and that of his parents? Great idea, very entertaining and sinister to read. Really recommended tale about the dark side of the web. So be aware in your children education!
