Big Data Girl is a picture book I co-authored with Fred Wordie. Words by him, pictures by me.

It tells the story of Big Data Girl, a girl with the power to see her friends’ data. What begins as innocent perfect gifts, perfect medical diagnosis and perfect dating matches suddenly take a more sinister turn. It’s a fable for the digital age aimed to help both adults and young people understand our complex data world.
