Akhi’s Bytes
A story of heart, code, and one very special toddler
She can’t walk yet. She can’t talk yet.
But somehow, Akhi is about to save a mission to Mars.
“A story made to be experienced on the biggest screen imaginable.”

About the Book
Two worlds. One tiny hero.
When NASA’s brilliant — and wonderfully quirky — on-board computer systems team hits a crisis that threatens to derail humanity’s greatest adventure, the answer comes from the most unexpected source: a two-year-old girl named Akhi. And the secret community of sentient computers who have been watching over her since birth.
Warm, witty, and unlike anything you’ve read before — Akhi’s Bytes is a story about the technology we build, the children we raise, and the magic that happens when the two worlds meet.
Meet the Cast
Characters you’ll never forget
Akhi
Two years old. Limitless potential. Absolutely no idea she is saving the world. Akhi sees technology not as a tool — but as a friend.
Dr. Roger Jackson
NASA’s finest computer scientist — and a father figuring out parenthood one donut Monday at a time.
Lenny
A vintage personal computer who helped bring technology into every home on Earth. Wise, warm, and absolutely refuses to be retired.
Ace
Fast, flashy, and completely certain he is the smartest machine in the room. (He is not always right about this.)

A Taste of the Story
From the first page…
“Alright, let’s go through the rules one more time,” Tommy said. He had to raise his voice to be heard in the noisy library. Everyone was arguing with each other, often yelling, and the ensuing cacophony meant no one was able to understand what was going on anyway. This has become the routine right before the ‘fight’ starts every night.”
— Akhi’s Bytes, Chapter 1
Welcome to the Library — a secret gathering place for computers of every generation, where the nightly challenge is about to begin, and Lenny is hoping, just this once, that he might win.
