Rau, Dana Meachen Robot, Go Bot! Illustrated by Wook
Jin Jung. 32pgs. Random House,2013. $3.99. STEP INTO READING. A little girl gets a new friend in the form
of a robot. They do all kinds of fun
activities like blow bubbles and throw a ball, but the girl starts to use the
Robot for her own gain. She makes him
mow the lawn and row her boat. She works
him like a pack horse. The robot finally
has enough and leaves. He doesn't return
until the little girl apologizes.
This book addresses friendship in an extremely simple
way. It has almost no words, but the
author still manages to get the story across.
It teaches kids an important lesson: Friendship is a two-sided relationship and if one person takes it for
granted, it is not going to work out.
The illustrations were fun. The little girl and the robot are adorable! I believe a young child would enjoy this
book. ADVISABLE. Student Reviewed: JL
