Ada & Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream

from FSFE

https://fsfe.org/activities/ada-zangemann/index.en.html

The famous inventor Zangemann lives in a huge villa high above the city. Adults and children alike love his inventions and are desperate to have them. But then something happens: when Zangemann wants to take another close-up look at his inventions during a walk through the city, a child hits him in the shin with the skateboard. That hurts! Enraged, the inventor makes a momentous decision... The clever girl Ada sees through what is going on. Together with her friends, she forges a plan.\
\
This illustrated book tells the story of the famous inventor Zangemann and the girl Ada, a curious tinkerer. Ada begins to experiment with hardware and software, and in the process realises how crucial it is for her and others to control technology.\
\
A book that arouses children's interest in tinkering and encourages shaping technology. From age 6 to 106.

Born before 1918? This book is not for you. :)

There is a video. Here are links to some copies. Not all of these worked for me. It's 31:32 long.
