The prestigious American newspaper The Washington Post has recommended the latest book by Albanian journalist Fortesa Latifi, “Like, Follow, Subscribe: Influencer Kids and the Cost of a Childhood Online,” set to be published on April 7, 2026.

The book explores the growing phenomenon of child influencers and the consequences of early exposure to social media. According to The Washington Post, while public debate often focuses on how digital content affects children, Latifi shifts the attention to a less discussed reality: cases where children are not merely consumers of content, but become the content themselves.

In this investigative work, Latifi examines the child influencer industry through interviews with parents, former child influencers, and experts, highlighting the emotional, psychological, and social cost of growing up online.
