What's the Story?
THE ROBOT BOOK is an incredibly simple, vividly illustrated, quick read that muses about robots, robot parts, and what makes robots tick.
Is It Any Good?
The Robot Book will delight very young children and get them thinking about what we're all made of. The hardback version has tactile gears and cogs for grabbing and turning, which will engage young minds. The board book and Kindle version also are captivating, with bright watercolor images and simple words that will get kids thinking about what makes us all go.
