A shout-out for girl scientists and makers, Robobaby is an eye-opening and engaging blend of the familiar and the fantastic. A baby's arrival is a big moment in any family, even if they are robots. Picture book grandmaster David Wiesner captures the excitement and fanfare when baby Flange appears—as a crate full of components awaiting to be assembled into a bundle of joy. The adults bungle the construction process, with hilarious and increasingly chaotic results. Big sister Cathy, with her handy toolbox and advanced knowledge of robotics, hasn't been allowed to help, but in the ensuing havoc she calmly clears up the technical difficulties and bonds with her new baby brother.
