---

An edu-taining new series that introduces simple science, technology, engineering, art, and math words in an engaging, rhyming story. 

With bright, energetic illustrations, and simple, rhyming text, It’s Computer Time follows along as two classmates actively learn with a computer—turning it on, using the mouse, dragging and dropping, and even dancing. Written with preschool curriculum vocabulary in mind, each page features one or more technology term, such as Internet, icon, keyboard, app, delete, spacebar, and more, all of which are then simply defined on the last spread. The story is relatable and entertaining, all while showcasing responsible and engaging use of the technology involved.
