The way in is here
Fifteen minutes.
Then you decide.
Some monsters only kids can see
It's been watching.
The question is — have you seen it?
Move your cursor (or finger) across — its eye follows you. In the first two chapters, Sam realises for the first time: he isn't the only one being watched.

Why tell a story
to talk about something this serious?
Because among children who are bullied, fewer than half ever tell an adult at school. For most of them the grown-ups simply never find out — not because the adults weren't paying attention, but because the child already did the arithmetic and concluded that silence was safest.
A lecture can't get through that wall; a story can. Underneath this book is ICAN Practical Psychology, created by Prof. CK Wong, JP — but the book never lectures. A child only ever sees an adventure.
Four things you're probably wondering
Ask first, then tap.
The first two chapters cost nothing, and sign-up asks for no credit card, so there's nothing to charge. Any price shown on this page is for the whole of I See You — and you only decide whether to continue after you've read the sample and found it worth it.
Because to open the book for you, the system needs to know which page is yours — where you've read to, and where to pick up next time. Sign-up takes one email address, about 20 seconds.
The novel is written for readers aged 8–14: short sentences, lots of dialogue, short chapters. The first two chapters let you judge whether the level fits your child — which is exactly why the free sample exists.
The monster is a metaphor, not a horror film. Nowhere does the book ask a child to handle physical harm or threats alone; the moment that line is crossed, the story does one thing only — tell a trusted adult, and keep telling until someone acts. Every book ends with the Help Page.
