Wonder Ponder’s Visual Philosophy series introduces children to some of the big questions in philosophy in a fun and engaging way.
I, Person, like Wonder Ponder’s first title, Cruel World, was developed and created in dialogue with real children between the ages of 6 and 12.
Through 14 illustrated scenes and more than 100 open-ended questions, the reader-player can construct their own definition of personhood and establish the implications of being a person in terms of rights and responsibilities, intelligence and emotions, knowledge and learning.
