📖 **Educational-training activity "They are young + they need code" at the Tiraboschi library (BG) - second edition**
The BgLUG, in collaboration with [il circolo dei narratori club](https://www.ilcerchiodigesso.org/event/ada-zangemann-2/) and following the [Call to mobilisation]({{< relref "/posts/2024/2024-07-03-cercasi-volontari-AdaZ/volontari-cercasi/" >}}) will propose for the second time the didactic-training activity "They are young + they need code" promoted by FSFE [(read the report of the first public reading held in Dalmine)]({{< relref "/posts/2024/2024-10-01-resoconto-evento-lettura-adaz-dalmine/" >}}).
The event will be held at the **Tiraboschi library** on **15 February 2025** at **16:00**.
The target audience of the activity are **children and young people aged 6 to 12**.

📖 **About the Book**
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.
