WASHINGTON - Marylandian -- Chandra Donelson, a recognized leader in artificial intelligence and data literacy advocacy, celebrated Veterans Day with the release of her second children's book, The Data Detective at the Airport, published by Technics Publications. This highly anticipated follow-up builds on the success of her debut, The Data Detective at the Carnival, continuing a vital mission to address the growing gap in early-age data comprehension.

In an increasingly AI and data-driven world, children are surrounded by vast amounts of information but often lack the foundational skills to critically analyze and make sense of it. Donelson's Data Detective Series provides the solution to this challenge, teaching children ages 5–9 how to observe, think critically, and solve real-world problems through engaging storytelling.

"In today's data-driven age, the ability to read, work with, analyze, and communicate with data is an essential skill," Donelson explained. "With The Data Detective series, I wanted to give children a resource I wish I had."

In The Data Detective at the Airport, readers reconnect with William, a curious young boy who dreams of becoming a data professional just like his mom. As he works to earn his second official data detective badge, William must navigate fun, real-world challenges set within the dynamic environment of a bustling airport. This immersive journey allows young readers to seamlessly explore key skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, and communication, all while revealing how data influences their everyday lives.

Donelson's dedication to expanding data and AI literacy education has already positioned her books as key teaching tools in classrooms and communities across the United States and globally. With over 2 billion children worldwide, her goal remains ambitious: "Teaching children to be data literate means preparing them to make tomorrow's innovative technology. If we can reach even 5% of them, imagine the breakthroughs they could achieve."
