The Fantastic Five & KooBits

Some of you have read it, some of you have not. If you have not, guess what?!?

KooBits was featured in the Straits Times on March 20, 2009! The reporter, Amelia Tan, and her photographer came to our office for an interview with Stanley & Dr Chen, as well as our KooKids! Check out the web version of the article here!


Our KooKids, as shown in the picture above from left to right, Lorraine Ge, Bani Muhamad Iyad, Abdul Qadir, Ryan Bangras and Tommy Tan was featured! They each brought their favorite book and showed them to Amelia who was genuinely impressed by their creativity. After a short sharing session, the KooKids decided to name themselves The Fantastic Five.

Amongst them, there is two excellent young writers, Ryan and Lorraine. Ryan, who loves action and excitement, decided to keep everyone in suspense by holding his story about an alien lost in space at the climax. He said, "The next book will be coming in two to three weeks time."

You heard him, let's be patient for now! Lorraine loves writing and writing non-stop because she desires to be a journalist or TV host in future. She said, "Koobits made it easy for me to write and publish my books. It allows me to be an author immediately online."

Indeed, Lorraine's books captured little snippets of her powerful imagination that nobody has thought about. Judging from her eloquence and bubbliness, she will definitely make the best TV host!

Bani and Qadir, on the other hand, had created fantastic video books! Bani spent his time during the One-Day Tour, producing his first Joke Book with jokes thought by him and got the KooBits team laughing along. It was indeed relaxing to have children around the office to brighten up our day once in awhile.

Qadir's book was an inspiration from Steven Spielbierg's E.T.: The Extra Terrestrial, which amazed everyone. Nobody has done a short movie book with KooBits before. Now, we see where creativity really comes from. His book is a definite must-see because he might just be your future director and producer from Singapore!

Last but not least, we have Tommy in the house too. He is the adorable kid anyone has seen. Don't believe? Just look at his cute facial expression in the photo above or view the video in this blog post. Tommy has the ability in writing heartwarming and touching stories. His books always receives very high ratings on KooBits Library!

Through a short 2 hour interview, these amazing kids have made me view the younger generation from a different perspective. Even though some of them are only as young as 10 years old, their hidden capability amidst their small built is bigger than anyone can think of.

Albert Einstein once said, "To stimulate creativity, one must develop the childlike inclination for play and the childlike desire for recognition."

Creativity comes from children. I am glad that KooBits enables them to shine in their best abilities. No more undermining of a child's talent, let them unleash their fullest potential today!

Ending off, let me present The Fantastic Five once again. These kids have really impacted the KooBits team in different ways. Five of them, five personalities, five talents and five bright future! Check out The Fantastic Five book created by Qadir and dedicated to all of them!
