Robobaby by David Wiesner - ADVISABLE

Robobaby by David Wiesner
. PICTUE BOOK. Clarion (Houghton), 2020. $18. 9780544987319 

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) – ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

The Robot family has received a new addition, but they are having trouble. Neither Mom nor Uncle Manny will listen to older sis Cathy when they are building the new baby. It is only with a little help and distraction from Sprocket, the family pet, that Cathy will be able to assemble baby Flange the way she should. 

Kids who can’t seem to get their parents’ attention, parents who think they can do things without following direction (IKEA furniture, anyone), will see themselves here. The robot family and neighbors’ antics are surely funny – even as they do things that humans will recognize.
