Pace & Race Picture Books

A five-book picture book series that teaches kids how AI really works. Each book tackles one AI4K12 big idea about how AI actually works.

Built for classrooms:

  • Built on what educators use. Every book is aligned to AI4K12’s Five Big Ideas and the OECD AILit Framework.
  • No devices required. No chatbot needed. These are books about thinking, not screen time.
  • Built for critical thinking. Written for kids who ask why, and for grown-ups who would rather they ask good questions than copy and paste.
  • More than a story. Each book ends with a QR code linking to an original sing-along song.

Teacher Packs

AI literacy resources for elementary classrooms — every activity mapped to the AI4K12 Five Big Ideas and the OECD AILit framework, so what looks playful is grounded in real pedagogy.

Built for classrooms: These TPT packs take brand-new, intimidating topics and make them feel simple, hands-on, and genuinely teachable in any classroom — no devices, no tech background, and no prep required.

Aliyah Williams, founder of Pace & Race

Who made this

Hi, I'm Aliyah Williams. My little brother wanted to use AI for his homework. I looked for something that teaches kids his age to stop and think before they ask. I couldn't find it.

So I built it.

WATCH GIGI EXPLAIN IT

Short episodes for curious builders — the brain behind the build. GiGi hosts, Race messes up, Pace saves.

GiGi hosts every episode — 2 minutes, one big idea, one tiny build.

No lectures. She shows, Race tries, Pace asks. You make.
