Fun Way to Learn About Computers!

My twin daughters are in fourth grade, and they just loved this book. I like to read many of the books my daughters read so we can talk about them, and I also enjoyed "The Contest". The kids in the story are so real, with incredibly distinct and believable personalities. The suspense of the contest itself keeps you turning the pages, and it is also pretty humorous. Plus there is the added bonus of learning the nuts and bolts about how the inside of a computer actually works. I highly recommend this educational book that is also very enjoyable to read.

So Clever! Love the ending!

I got this clever book for my 12-year old nephew and 9-year old niece. They love using computers, but really had no idea how a computer worked. The book was such a page-turner that they didn't even realize that they were learning about how the important parts of a computer work. I had to read it myself since I really didn't know how a computer worked either...I couldn't put the book down until I was done. Great ending!
