This book offers an exciting narrative that stretches across time and space, seamlessly blending the local with the universal, and the traditional with the digital. İlhami finds reading books dull—until one day, he stumbles upon an old red telephone box. When he picks up the receiver, he's captivated by the strange and magical stories it tells. Soon, he becomes addicted to these tales. As İlhami delves deeper into the mystery of the telephone box's artificial intelligence, he also uncovers something unexpected: his own passion for reading.
