Accurate, approachable information
I’m an information security professional, and I use this book when teaching security to Girl Scouts (5 to 11 years old). It’s colorful and entertaining enough to keep their attention, and it illustrates complex concepts in a kid-friendly way. I love the clear advice it gives about staying safe online.

AMAZING Cyber Book for Children
I got this book for my nephew, turning 7. As an IT person and in the interest of due diligence, I wanted to read it, too. I LOVE IT! Itâs beautifully written, animated, and well thought out. IT/Cyber is hard to grasp as an adult, let alone kids, and I wish I had had this book growing up. Itâs a fantastic intro to all things internet/networking, physical/personal and data safety, and a fun call to action for more little engineers! Shoot, even I learned something new! 10/10

Really great book
In my opinion, this book hits the mark for parents looking to inspire their kids to explore a future in cybersecurity, while also making for a great bedtime story. It provides a high-level overview of key cybersecurity concepts but keeps the artwork and rums of a great childrenâs book. I am a big fan and will look for more books from the author on this topic.

Sparks kidsâ curiosity about one of the most pivotal technology components: security.
My daughters (three and one) love this book! They ask to read it all the time. The older one connects with it more, attempting to grasp the plot and concepts. The younger one is drawn to the illustrations. What I love most is that thereâs tension inherent in the subject matter, which the author fully capitalizes on, so itâs fun to get dramatic while reading it. This works to instill a healthy curiosity about cybersecurity for both girls. Highly recommended!

Fantastic book covering tech topics for kids
We purchased the paperback version for a young family member and I couldn’t be more pleased. As a tech professional, I’m aware that the author is a content creator across various platforms, where she has made a practice of explaining various tech topics in ways that are approachable and digestible for anyone. I think her content creation skills have prepared her well for her newest venture as a children’s book author.Reading through the book before wrapping the gift, I loved the illustrations and how well the technical topics are handled. I pictures fill the pages and the drawings are full of color and motion. In addition to encouraging the child in the book that they, too, can become a cybersecurity engineer, the book also touches on the critical topic of cyber bullying, including coping skills for when kids inevitably encounter such behavior online (super bonus points for that!).We really hope that our family member enjoys this book and gains something from it, and, while I’ve been a fan of the author’s online content for some time now, I’ll absolutely be on the lookout for future children’s books. To Amber – keep up the amazing work!

Wonderful for anyone with kids, even adults who want to slightly better understand cybersecurity
As someone who works in the cybersecurity field, I find myself often struggling to share even the basics about my day to day, and the things that Iâm passionate about. I think cyber is one of the least understood fields we have. This book I believe will go a long way to helping a whole new generation (and maybe even the parents reading it to them!) understand cyber better to, at the very least better defend and protect their own data and networks, but maybe even pursue careers in cyber, adding to the desperately needed number of defenders!Wonderful book!
