A Thoughtful Story About Kids, Technology, and Learning to Think WellBy Amelia Grace Harper

About this audiobook
Growing Up at the Speed of Thinking is a warm, thoughtful, and timely children’s audiobook about curiosity, technology, and the kind of wisdom that cannot be downloaded.
At her school’s technology fair, Simone is thrilled to discover a pair of futuristic smart glasses that can identify objects, answer questions, and help solve problems in seconds. At first, the experience feels magical. The world seems faster, smarter, and easier to understand.
But as the day unfolds, Simone begins to realize that quick answers are not always complete answers.
Through a series of discoveries, mistakes, and meaningful moments with teachers, classmates, and younger students, Simone learns that technology can be powerful without being perfect. She begins to see that while machines can assist, suggest, and inform, they cannot replace human judgment, careful observation, compassion, or the pause that real thinking often requires.
