New Coloring Book Teaches Apple's Innovation Story to Kids Through Hands-On Creativity Instead of Screens
Gabriele Gobbo, Vice President of Digital Security Festival and founder of Italiamac, releases a 74-page interactive coloring book teaching Apple's innovation story to ages 4-12 through hands-on creativity instead of screens.
- Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, WA (1888PressRelease) December 01, 2025 - Teaching today's screen-native children about technology's evolution requires more than another app. Gabriele Gobbo, who built Italy's largest Apple community over three decades, believes the answer lies in crayons, not code.
Gobbo announces the global availability of "The Adventures of Cupertino: A Read & Color Tribute to Apple's Story," a 74-page coloring book that transforms tech history into family bonding time.
The book explores 13 pivotal moments in Apple's journey, deliberately including commercial failures alongside successes. Children discover the Newton MessagePad, the Pippin gaming console, and the Power Mac G4 Cube, products that flopped commercially but demonstrated bold thinking.
"Real innovation isn't just about the iPhone," Gobbo explains. "It's about the Pippin that nobody bought, the Newton that arrived too early, and the G4 Cube that looked like art. These teach kids that creativity involves risk and failure."
Italian families have already embraced the book, ranking it #2 Most Gifted in Science Biographies and placing it in the Top 20 for Inventions for Kids on Amazon.it.
As Vice President of the Digital Security Festival (2025 GoBeyond Award winner) and recipient of the 2023 "Golden Communicator" MCC Digital Award, Gobbo challenges the "digital native" myth. He argues children are "Digital Sleepwalkers" who need guidance to engage actively with technology.
The book includes word puzzles, design challenges, and historical facts formatted for parent-child discussion. Each of the 13 milestones, from the garage-built Apple I to the Apple Watch, pairs simple storytelling with detailed illustrations.
"I created this for my seven-year-old son," Gobbo says. "I wanted him to understand that the iPad he uses daily has a story, one built on experimentation, setbacks, and human curiosity."
The 8.25 x 8.25 inch paperback is optimized for crayons and colored pencils, with illustrations printed on quality paper.
Available now on Amazon worldwide.
