The book follows the adventures of four
teenagers who, thanks to the Internet, maintain contact while
separated by thousands of kilometres. Their adventures and
misadventures while surfing on the Net will illustrate how
youth can use the World Wide Web in a safe and fun manner.
Written for teenagers, the book is partly based on a true
story.
