“The App I Cot 6 Series” Inspires Young Hearts at Veritas Ink & Press Booth, MIBF 2025

Among the varied offerings at the Manila International Book Fair 2025, “The App I Cot 6 Series” by Dennis W. C. Wong proved to be a standout attraction at the Veritas Ink & Press booth. Its engaging storytelling, strong lessons of character, and relevance in today’s challenges drew in families, educators, children, and those who believe in the formative power of stories.

A Series of Growth, Adversity, and Hope
“The App I Cot 6 Series” traces the life journey of “Appy,” an anthropomorphic “app” who grows through stages of life—childhood, school, college, career, pandemic trials, retirement, and family legacy. The series’ six installments chart Appy’s challenges: moving to a new town, facing bullying, adapting through college, confronting adversity in a global crisis, transitioning to retirement, and finally embracing legacy in family life.

Each volume communicates virtues such as perseverance, adaptability, compassion in crisis, and the dignity of honest labor. The pandemic chapter, for instance, addresses fear and anxiety in ways relatable both for young readers and adults alike, making the narrative timely and meaningful. Barnes & Noble+1

A Warm Reception at MIBF 2025
At Veritas Ink & Press, “The App I Cot 6 Series” quickly drew attention from parents looking for wholesome and instructive reading material for their children. Teachers and school librarians were also drawn to its educational value, especially its capacity to spark discussion about bullying, change, and handling life’s ups and downs.

Young readers, meanwhile, were enthralled with Appy’s personality, the story arcs, and the way each installment gives them both a mirror and a model: someone who fails, learns, presses on, and eventually influences others. Many fairgoers expressed that the series felt more than a story—they felt it was a companion for life’s transitions.
