About the Book

Finally! A book that takes a unique look at computer crashes and Internet glitches. Join Computious® – “The Impish Sage of the Computer Age!” – as she has explores our digital world.

Computious is an American girl with Asian features who has things in common with Confucius, the Chinese philosopher (551-479 B.C.) who believed we should live ethically. Neither would ever become a hacker, create a computer virus, nor spam anyone!

As Computious masters the digital era, she is joined by:

  • Mei Mei - her loyal follower; Mei Mei means "little sister" in Mandarin.
  • Dot Complicated - a friend who makes things, well, complicated.
  • Serge deFault - a partly geekish friend who is a bit short on social skills.

Their animal friends join them:

  • Sweet & Sour - He is a cute pig who likes to sleep.
  • Ping Pong the Panda Bear - She is just plain lovable.
  • C.C. the Cat - He is curious when he isn't scared.
  • Elmo the Elephant - He never passes up a party.

Together they overcome challenges and become masters of the digital world!
