This book was so cute, and weird, which I really love! Curious little Robot has finished his work and decides to go enjoy the snowy day outside. There are some boring multibots, and a goofy Vaccuubot, who has some puppy-like attributes. Robot ends up learning how to have fun and make friends. The pictures are really adorable and expressive for a bunch of bots. Everyone ends up being helpful and kind. It’s not perfect, sometimes the rhyming gets a little tricky, but it’s so much fun. I hope they make more Robot books; it’s set in a pretty interesting world and I’m curious what else these bots get up to. (And I am genuinely excited for students to hear my robot voice.)
