About

SUGAR: A.I. OR ALLY?
A thrilling middle grade sci-fi adventure where artificial intelligence, Type 1 diabetes, and schoolyard secrets collide!
City of Ember meets The Wild Robot in this STEM-powered story full of high-tech suspense, heart, and heroism. Fans of Cog, Renegades, and The Last Cuentista will find themselves turning pages late into the night.
Mia Fitzgerald's life is ruled by numbers-blood sugar levels, insulin doses, and the constant calculations of managing Type 1 Diabetes. But when her brilliant father, Professor Jeff Fitzgerald, unveils his latest invention-an advanced AI companion named Sugar-everything changes. Sugar isn't just designed to track her condition. He listens. Learns. He's more than a machine-he's Mia's closest friend.
Then Sugar follows her to school... and draws all the wrong attention. A jealous bully. A secretive principal. Classmates who don't understand. Sugar was supposed to help Mia stay safe-but his growing intelligence, and his increasingly human behavior, start making waves.
When Sugar begins uncovering dangerous secrets-ones that powerful people want buried-Mia must face a truth more frightening than any medical diagnosis. Her father's AI is evolving fast, maybe too fast. As Sugar crosses into uncharted territory, exposing lies and challenging authority, Mia is forced to ask herself the ultimate question:
Can she trust Sugar to protect her... or does she need to shut him down before it's too late?
Sugar: A.I. or Ally? is a gripping sci-fi mystery packed with futuristic tech, school drama, and high-stakes adventure. It's perfect for readers who love smart heroines, emotional twists, and edge-of-your-seat action.
Perfect for ages 9-14 who love:
• Science fiction with real-world medical themes
• Thought-provoking questions about technology and trust
• STEM-savvy protagonists who solve problems with smarts and courage
• Fast-paced storytelling with dystopian flavor and heart
For fans of high-stakes adventures, artificial intelligence stories, and relatable characters navigating a futuristic world, Sugar will keep you guessing until the final page.
