Meet Ada — a curious, creative Nigerian girl who stumbles upon a magical butterfly named Byte hiding inside her mum's old laptop. Together with her Aunty Ngozi, a software developer in Lagos, Ada embarks on a coding adventure that changes everything she thought she knew about computers.

  In this beautifully illustrated comic ebook, children will discover that code is simply a recipe for computers — and that ANYONE can learn it, especially girls! Each chapter introduces a real programming concept through fun stories and relatable examples:

  - What is code? It's like a jollof rice recipe — step-by-step instructions!
  - Loops? That's like a song chorus that repeats!
  - If/Else? It's how you choose between your school uniform and your party dress!
  - Variables? They're magic boxes that store your name, age, and favourite colour!
  - Bugs? Every coder has them — and fixing them makes you a detective!

  Along the way, kids will meet inspiring women in tech like Ada Lovelace (the world's first programmer), Katherine Johnson (NASA hero), and Ire Aderinokun (Nigerian developer). Ada even builds her own Drawing App and starts a Coding Club at her school!

  This ebook includes:
  - 10 illustrated comic chapters with speech bubbles and fun characters
  - Real Python code examples kids can try
  - Fun Facts on every page
  - A quiz to test what they've learned
  - Interactive activities: Design Your Own App, Find the Coding Words, Fix the Bugs
