This almost 100 page book is loaded with page after page of really neat robots that do everything from explore the depths of the ocean to go into outer space. First, the reader will get a little history on robots, and learn where the word 'robot' came from, when the first robot was made, and what early designs looked like. Have you read the famous book, I, Robot, by Isaac Asimov? It's mentioned in here, along with Asimov's famous "Three Laws of Robotics."
After reading about the history of robots, the rest of the book is divided into seven chapters: Robots that Work, Protect, Explore, Fly, Help, Play and my favorite, Robots that Kids Make. There's no need to read Robots page-by-page, it's the perfect book to flip back and forth, finding interesting sections (hint: they're all interesting!) that grab your attention. Bright, clear photos abound on each and every page. In short, this is a great book for kids who want to learn about robots!
Quill says: For kids who love robots, this is a totally cool book!
