Award winner David Wiesner captures the excitement and fanfare when baby Flange appears--as a crate full of components. The adults bungle the process of assembling Flange, with catastrophic results. Big sister Cathy, with her handy toolbox and advanced knowledge of robotics and IT, hasn't been allowed to help, but in the ensuing chaos she calmly clears up the technical difficulties and bonds with her new baby brother. A shout-out for girl scientists and makers, <i>Robobaby</i> is an eye-opening and engaging blend of the familiar and the fantastic. <p/><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>★ "A retro-futuristic romp, literally and figuratively screwy." -<i>Kirkus</i>, STARRED review <p/> "Wiesner's friendly robots, despite their clunky metal framework, infuse their twilit extraterrestrial world with warmth and mutual support, making this a convivial, if offbeat, addition to the new-baby-on-the-way collection." -<i>The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>David Wiesner</b> is internationally renowned for his visual storytelling and has won the Caldecott Medal three times--for <i>Tuesday</i>, <i>The Three Pigs</i>, and <i>Flotsam</i>--the second person in history to do so.
