Description
The Global Kid takes you into the world of global affairs – in the virtual and augmented realms! Through the female superhero character Tanya (inspired by my nieces) and her canine sidekick Lucky (inspired by my rescue dog!), it entertains and educates kids age 8-12+ about the world’s biggest challenges and kids’ role in tackling them. This is in partnership with London-based, award-winning edtech startup Musemio, with important contributions from Rome-based AR Market and artist Mara Angelilli. The VR/AR comic book has already won four US awards (and won one in EU which will be public in Sept)! It reached the Top 25 Amazon US bestsellers list and Top 5 on Australia and Singapore’s Amazon sites (plus #1 in Hot New Releases). I donated a week’s profits to the WHO’s Covid Fund, UNICEF’s Ukraine Appeal and Pakistan’s flood relief.
