The Curios Little Story about a Curios Little Being

All the statistics show that it is the level of knowledge regarding GMOs that constitutes people's attitude towards GMOs. Actually, this mechanism is quite natural and concern many other instances. The less we know about a certain thing the more we fear it, and if the road is paved with fear then irrational attitudes will be the offspring of irrational arguments. My mission is not to convert anyone's opinion concerning GMO, but to make people talk about it. A GMO itself is not right or wrong, the existence of an organism cannot be wrong, it is how we decide to use it that can be ethically discussed. is the way to make sure that whatever opinion one might have, it is built on a solid foundation. But how do I even get started. People can be very hardheaded. Why are they hardheaded? The have been shaped, twisted and turned by the circumstances of life and are in no way what so ever in a place where such complicated issues as GMOs can prioritized. They do not have the time... Then I asked myself. If I am to share my thoughts on GMOs with someone who has the time and it is not bias then that should it be? Children of course.

Children are blessed with an unpolluted mind and a wonderful ability to ask the most obvious questions in ways that require not so obvious answers. 
But for these questions to come into existence and be verbalized by children, they must be introduced in a form that is understandable and in some lengths entertaining.
 If I can introduce children to GMOs and at the same time tell them a story with existential implications it just might do the job. 
Ripples of enlightenment have been set in motion. 
An introductory children's book about GMOs with an undertone of existentialism. 
For Kids. Why make it easy?
