Overview

Upgrade your tech knowledge with this beautifully illustrated, inspirational, and accessible guide to the fascinating field of computing. From the simplest software to electronic brains, and from smartphone apps to social media and video games, there are gigabytes of data for you to unravel. Discover the skills you’ll need to become a top-class coder or a cyber sensation, and how microprocessors monitor our factories, fitness, traffic, and even guide robots across other worlds. From the abacus to apps, games to graphics, and GPS to smart speakers, Computer Technology for Curious Kids provides all the data you need to transform yourself into a computer-tech wizard. Reading level varies from child to child, but we recommend this book for ages 8 to 12.
