About the story
A familiar click opens a remarkable hidden world.
When Jiajia’s new swimsuit and goggles arrive just in time for her swimming competition, Eva—a talking cardboard box with a secret—invites her into the hidden world of logistics. Inside a vast warehouse, Jiajia discovers how online orders become real parcels: stock is tracked, the right items are picked and packed, and parcels are sorted, transported and delivered to the right home.
Along the way, she sees how people, robots, algorithms and computer systems work together, and learns what happens when an item is returned or packaging is reused or recycled. Combining a magical adventure with clear explanations and fact boxes, this research-informed narrative non-fiction picture book introduces logistics to readers aged 7–11.
