Author's Message

As a Computing teacher, I aim to spark curiosity and support children on their learning journey. This inspired me to write a story for ages 7 - 11. A story to assist digital literacy in an ever-evolving world of digital devices and online services. However, I didn’t want to just write any story that fits a computing tale. I needed to write a story that touches on challenges faced by children all over the world to raise awareness, such as access to clean water, education and safety.
