Inner Pixel (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781087997803)

Inner Pixel by Brian Wilson is a creative and timely story about harmony and friendship between those who don't look the same.

Set in the computer world, Inner Pixel explores the relationship between pixels of different colors. The story is narrated by Peter Pixel. He's a black pixel who realizes that he's invisible on the screen without others' help.

Combining with pixels of various colors, Peter uncovers some of the science behind pixel technology. He learns how computers create onscreen colors and how it takes teamwork to generate the images we see on our computers, tablets, and cellphones.

Beyond the science, Inner Pixel is a story with a simple message that no matter what color we are, we're all the same inside, and that's what matters.

Written in perfect rhyme, Inner Pixel is an engaging bedtime story for young children and early readers alike. It will also provide teachers with an ideal starting point for discussions and curriculum work in the classroom.

In Inner Pixel, Brian Wilson has created a charming book with a timeless message for the tech-savvy kids of today. And the book dovetails neatly with his previous work in the field of computer education.

In 2008, Brian was the creator of patchX.org, a program set-up to provide much-needed computer access to underprivileged children and those with disabilities. By distributing renovated home computers and introducing youngsters to technical skills like computer programming and graphic design, patchX.org opened up a wealth of possibilities to hundreds of children in our increasingly technological world.
