Tony Stevens has to be the laziest kid in town. No, he’s definitely the laziest. He spends every second of his free time sitting in front of the TV, and he enjoys every second of it. As long as the snacks and drinks keep coming, he would be satisfied to spend his whole life watching TV. He doesn’t even care what’s on, as long as he can see it.

One day, a mysterious package arrives in the mail for Tony. He doesn’t remember ordering anything, and his parents claim to know nothing about it. He decides to keep it anyway, and opens it up to find a fancy new remote control. It has so many buttons on it that Tony doesn’t even know where to start. All he knows is that his TV time is about to become even more exciting.

Tony quickly finds that the remote doesn’t just control his TV. It controls everything in his life. More like everyone. His parents, his teachers, and even the school bully. He can pause, rewind, and even fast forward them with the press of a button. Tony soon finds that some things should not be controlled, and he begins to wonder who is controlling what here. Is he actually controlling the remote, or is the remote really controlling him? Find out, in Click.
