Found in the Game

Reach for this book when your teenager seems more comfortable behind a screen than in the classroom, or when you want to bridge the gap between their digital passion and real-world confidence. Found in the Game follows a group of young gamers navigating the high stakes of professional esports and virtual reality. While the plot is fast-paced and tech-heavy, the core of the story explores how the bravery and leadership skills kids develop in gaming can be harnessed to solve tangible problems and build deep, loyal friendships.
