What really happens inside a computer after you press the power button?
I AM A COMPUTER (INSIDE HOW IT WORKS) takes curious young readers on an exciting visual journey beneath the screen and inside the technology that shapes their everyday world.
With colorful illustrations, friendly explanations, cutaway diagrams, challenges, and hands-on activities, kids discover how a computer really works, from the processor and motherboard to RAM, storage, graphics, software, coding, Wi-Fi, the internet, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence.
Young readers will discover how a CPU follows instructions, why computers use binary, how pixels create pictures, what makes hardware different from software, how information travels across networks, what the cloud really means, and why computers need cooling systems.
Perfect for kids ages 6-12, curious learners, future engineers, young programmers, homeschool families, STEM classrooms, and children fascinated by computers, coding, gaming, robots, and technology.
More than a computer book for kids, this is an invitation to explore, question, design, solve problems, and think like an engineer. Activities such as Build Your Dream Computer and The Great Computer Challenge turn learning into discovery.
Whether it is for a birthday, holiday, homeschool lesson, classroom library, or simply a child who keeps asking, How does that work?, this book makes complex technology exciting and understandable.
Open the book, look inside the machine, and help your young Computer Explorer discover the digital world in a whole new way.
