Book Synopsis

Everyone uses the internet! But do we understand how it really works? From AI to Wi-Fi is the ultimate guide for 8-12 year olds to the internet’s most crucial topics, featuring tips, tricks and activities to help them surf the web like a pro!

With expert information and practical tips written by real-life technologist Craig Steele, children will be well-equipped to navigate the tricky internet landscape, from the history of the internet to how websites are made and coded, who works on the internet and how to stay safe while using it. Plus engaging activities sprinkled throughout will inspire readers to get involved with helpful online projects in an age-appropriate way.

Featuring fun, friendly illustrations by Terri Po, this packed-out guide is the perfect tool to support children safely on their internet adventures.

Our Review Panel says...

Written with humour and clarity, this non-fiction book breaks down complex ideas associated with the Internet –  like data packets, algorithms, networks, and cybersecurity – into manageable and child-friendly explanations supported by diagrams and real‑world examples.

The book also discusses online risks, including scams, hacking and privacy concerns. These are handled in an age‑appropriate, factual way that would be great for starting discussions around e-safety, cyber security and Safer Internet Day.

As a teacher, I find it a strong choice for developing digital literacy and supporting cross‑curricular learning in computing, science, and PSHE.
