Personalized Children's Book for Software Engineers

Code becomes instructions you whisper to the computer. Bugs become tiny mix-ups you fix like puzzles.

Telling a 5-year-old you 'work on computers' doesn't land. This personalized children's book translates standups, pull requests, bug fixes, and shipping features into a story your kid can actually picture — without ever using the words 'standup' or 'pull request' until they're explained in their own language first.

What kids learn from a WorkTale book about software engineers

  • What a computer programmer actually does
  • Why mom or dad stares at the screen so much
  • That building software is a lot like building with blocks
  • How a 'bug' is a problem to solve, not a real bug

Frequently asked questions

I do frontend / backend / ML / mobile — can the book differentiate?
Yes. The interview captures your stack and role; a machine-learning engineer's analogies look different from a mobile developer's.
I'm a manager / EM / staff engineer — does this still work?
Yes. Leadership roles get framed around 'helping the team make good things,' not coding all day.
Can the company name be left in or out?
Your call. We can use a fictional company name or your actual one — most parents prefer fictional for privacy.
