The Shark on the Screen
A shark is swimming across the screen. Should Ash be scared? When Ash sees a shark on a screen, it looks very real. But is it? In this warm early reader for children aged 5 to 7, Ash learns a simple, powerful habit: not everything on a screen is real, and it is always fine to check with a grown-up. The friendly refrain, Is it real? Let's ask!, gives children words they can use at home and at school. Written in clear, simple language for beginner readers in reception, year 1 and year 2, and equally at home in kindergarten and first grade, this story opens gentle conversations about screens, pictures and pretend things. The book contains no live AI and collects no data. It is a story to read, share and talk about together, one question at a time.
