Reach for this book when your child is starting to ask big questions about what makes us human or if they feel like they don't quite fit the mold of what is expected of them.

Unlike the cold, perfect BDC-4 models, Eager makes mistakes and experiences wonder, mirroring a child's own journey of self-discovery. It is a thoughtful exploration of empathy and independence that helps children navigate their own sense of identity. Perfect for ages 9 to 12, it offers a gentle entry into philosophical thinking without losing the excitement of a high-stakes sci-fi adventure. Parents will appreciate how it encourages kindness and critical thinking about the role of technology in our lives.
