Like most other teens, Pixie Van Dimple is a victim of phone and internet addiction in the modern era. With the increasing rise in technological advancements, she spends excessive time on her phone. It continues until an incident occurs that convinces her to go on a quest to find solutions to phone and internet addiction.

Pixie Van Dimple and the Wrong Kind of Artificial Intelligence is a moralistic tale of a 12-year-old girl with an internet and phone addiction.

That Lynn McAlister's central character is inspired by her daughters shows the reality of early teenagers in the ever-increasing technological advancements. Anyone who reads the book will surely enjoy it due to the simpleness of the story. The book will be relatable to a wide range of children. The author makes sure to create a familiar setting --- the sitting room. The book is generally exciting not only for children but also for adults.

The book's thematic message was clear and appropriate for teens and adults, from the beginning to the end. It emphasized the threats of excessive internet consumption to children and young teens in a sci-fi fashion I found interesting. Concepts like AI bugs and biological clones spiced up the book.

Also, the book's illustrative pictures were very creative and top-notch. The perfect blend of colors enhances the reader's imagination of the book, portrays the characters in a likable way, and colorfully defines the settings.

I enjoyed the rhymes in the book. It made the reading fun and easy. However, it wasn't consistent throughout the book, which wasn't an issue. Children would enjoy the rhymes being read aloud to them, which was the intended purpose.

Due to the exceptional editing, easy-to-follow story, and exciting plot, I rate the book a 4 out of 4. It possesses all the necessary characteristics of a good children's book; there's nothing to dislike. I will recommend it to children aged 6 to 9 and teenagers enthralled by books based on artificial intelligence.
