Blending Thrills with Digital Skills in Teen Literature

In exploring the secondary education terrain and during the creation of an innovative e-learning platform on digital citizenship, Casper Pieters discovered a noticeable lack of compelling, educational literature for young teens on this essential subject. Much of the existing material was overly alarmist and did not resonate well with its young audience.

Motivated by this gap, Casper crafted the engaging MG Bindi and Beam series and the young YA Team Savv-i series. These series are more than just riveting adventures—they cleverly incorporate crucial technological education—making them invaluable for sparking classroom discussions and enriching educational experiences. Designed to captivate and educate, Casper's books aim to equip young minds with the knowledge they need to navigate the digital world.

What happens when your child’s mind is constantly buzzing—but never truly awake?

BRAIN ROTTED! - Cut the Noise. Find the Signal.

When the lines between real connection and digital obsession start to blur, a group of teens begin to notice something off. Screens freeze, minds drift, and familiar faces slip into strange loops of laughter and silence. As the Zipp app dominates their school with its hypnotic edits and emotional sync tech, Bindi, Chi, and their friends must face the truth: this isn’t just distraction—it’s disconnection by design. In a world engineered for endless scrolling and performative presence, BRAIN ROTTED! is a sharp, emotionally resonant story about reclaiming focus, fighting algorithmic numbness, and remembering what it means to really see each other.

✨ The screen won’t raise your child. But this story just might help save them.

In BRAIN ROTTED!, Casper Pieters pulls no punches in this gripping edufictional journey into the heart of our screen-saturated world. Told through the eyes of teens caught between endless scrolls, algorithmic rabbit holes, and the desperate search for real connection, this story hits hard—and heals deeper.

📵 THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR - Screens are not just stealing time. They're rewiring attention, numbing emotions, and quietly corroding confidence, empathy, and sleep. Mental health isn’t just suffering—it’s unraveling in silence. But there’s hope.

💡 This isn’t another lecture—it’s a wake-up call told through story.

BRAIN ROTTED! doesn't shame, scold, or simplify. Instead, it invites readers to feel what today’s teens feel—the pressure to stay connected, the anxiety of missing out, and the exhaustion of always being “on.” Through powerful characters and raw moments, it shows how to break free from the noise and rediscover clarity, purpose, and peace.
