A Fresh Squeeze on Data - Problem Solving with Data

Is your child interested in solving big problems? Do they want to make the world a better place? What if they could do that through data?

In A Fresh Squeeze on Data, Clara and Alex are two little kids with big ideas, all to help their local hospital. As their Lemonade Crew sets out to raise money by setting up a lemonade stand, they use data along their journey to understand factors like what to sell, where to set up their stand, as well as the role of bias in data.

This fun and interactive book uses simple pictures, diagrams, and comprehensive terms to walk readers through the basics of data science, and also contains relevant activity sheets for kids to put data to work!  

Written by K-12 artificial intelligence education experts and popular children’s authors ReadyAI in partnership with enterprise data cloud company Cloudera, the book is recommended for students ages 8 - 12 years old.

“Hello Everyone,

Thank you so much for reading this book! My sons, Flynn and Jedd, and I really enjoyed learning from Clara and Alex and hope you did too.

In our world, it’s very important that we understand where data comes from and how it can be used to make good predictions and decisions. Data can help us find the best solutions for people, our natural resources, and our communities. There are a lot of problems we can solve by analyzing data. The possibilities are limitless – just as they are for you!

Thanks for starting early on your path to appreciating the value of data and developing your data literacy. You’re on your way – keep it going!"
