What is the 3 Tips For Aliens book series, soon to be cartoons?
An incredible concept thought up by an amazingly talent author named Tyler David at just age 4.
A super fun way to teach kids in just three easy steps.
This book is written as though the author is trying to teach space aliens how to best look after their pets, us humans.
Each book is broken down into "3 easy to understand steps", and each book includes fun activities. Tyler David is looking to make his books into fun educational cartoons for kids to reach even more kids in a fun and learning way.
We are looking into ways we can learn to help him create his very own cartoon series.
"NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS"
The Birth Of The Book Series
As a family we were on our way back from a half day event in London, when Tyler needed the bathroom.
When they have gotta go they have gotta go!
Thinking fast I took him into McDonalds, my thinking was it will be super busy lots of families, we can pop in and use the bathroom unnoticed.
We rush in, up the stairs to find the bathrooms, when Tyler stops, he stands still, watching the families. He looked up at me and asks, "why are their parents giving their kids bad foods?" He seems completely shocked and horrified at what he is seeing. After learning lots about what we put into our bodies and why, he is upset that parents are feeding their kids these foods. A tear runs down his cheek. I wipe his tears and explain we will have a talk about it after we have used the bathrooms and left.
As soon as we exit the building, he starts again questioning what he has just seen, I explain we will find somewhere we can sit and talk. We get off the main high street and go sit together in an empty bus stop. He asks again, “Why are the parents giving their kids these foods? Why are they trying to hurt their children? Mummy it doesn't make sense?" I hug him tight and calmly explained that not everyone knows what we know, not everyone listens or learns to the same things that we do. I explained that the parents are not trying to harm their children, they simply do not know any better.
He takes a moment to think this through, and then is ready to continue with our day. A few paces later he looks up at me and says, "someone should teach the kids this stuff!" I nod in agreement. A little later that day he says, "maybe I should teach the kids this stuff?" Again, I nod and smile in agreement. Then a little later he bursts out with his idea, like it flooded up inside him and he had to let it out right then!
"I will create a book and teach kids this stuff!" I smile and share what an excellent idea this is, he then continues to say "to make it fun I am going to pretend that us humans are pets for aliens, and that I am trying to teach aliens how to look after us…" then half covering his mouth like what he was going to say next was a big secret he says "but really I am teaching the kids in a fun way."
I was blown away that my little 4-year-old had such heart, passion and drive. I loved his new book concept. The very next day he created his plans on paper including fun activities in the back of the book. This was the birth of the book series "3 Tips For Aliens" Tyler David continues to amaze me and still finds different things he loves to teach and share with others.
Now aged 11 He has started being recognised and winning awards, he currently has 45 published books in his series and his newest goal is to have 100 books published by age 15 including his books in different languages. I am excited to see what he continues to create.
