The Playbook: Switched On
Zaki Sharp is eleven, seventy dollars short, and about to discover that the adults around him have been playing a game nobody taught him the rules to.
From the supermarket to the school fair, from a failing lemonade stand to a print shop run by a man who asks better questions than he answers — Zaki is going to learn how the world really works.

Story First
We lead with narrative, not lectures. The lesson is hidden inside the adventure — the way real learning happens.
Real Lessons
Business. Money. People. Critical thinking. The stuff nobody teaches kids — embedded in fiction they can't put down.
For Every Kid
From first chapter books to young adult. Each series targets a specific age group. Every book makes the reader feel smarter.
Who we are.
A children's publishing house that teaches kids how the world actually works — through fiction they can't put down.
We don't lecture. We don't simplify. We don't talk down. We write stories where the lessons are hidden inside the adventure, the way real learning happens — by watching, by doing, by figuring it out.
If Switched On Books were a person, they'd be the cool uncle who actually explains how money works at Christmas dinner. Not a teacher. Not a parent. The person who treats kids like adults — because kids rise to the level you set.
“You already know your kid is smart. Switched On Books gives them stories that prove it.”
For the parents who want more for their kids.
