Paperback. What if your phone, a thermostat, and a video game all worked the same way underneath? Axi is back - and this time the big questions are about thinking, messages, and smart machines. In three time-travel adventures, curious kids meet three of history's greatest minds and discover the simple ideas hiding inside everyday technology.Alan Turing reveals what a computer really is - something that reads, follows rules, and takes one step at a time.Claude Shannon shows that every photo, song, and text message is built from tiny yes-or-no answers called bits.Norbert Wiener uncovers the feedback loop - goal, check, fix, repeat - the secret to how machines and people learn.But the real magic is the method that ties them all together: First Principles Thinking - go back to the beginning, ask "what do we know?", and build up from there. It's the same powerful habit of mind that great scientists, inventors, and problem-solvers use, explained so an 8-year-old can start using it today.Inside this book: A fun, story-driven adventure that turns computer science into something kids can see and feelHands-on "Try This!" activities - play the Human Computer Game, send secret bit-messages, and build feedback loops with a ball and a bucket"Talk About It" questions that spark real conversations at the dinner tableBeautiful full-color illustrations on every spreadA cumulative Problem Solver's Toolkit that grows across the seriesPerfect for curious minds ages 8-12 who love asking how and why - and for parents and teachers who want to build genuine critical-thinking skills, not just screen time.
