Even the youngest robotocists will love flipping the flaps to create their own robot--while exploring a simple A to Z roundup of robotics terms. Found your circuit-board head? Your voice-control torso? Your hydrojet feet? Hooray! You've made one of the 729 mix-and-match robots that are possible with this innovative flip-flap book. Alongside the bright and cheery illustrations of robot parts is a basic alphabetical listing of terms--from android to gears, neural network to program, wheels to Z-drive--and a basic definition of each. With a concealed spiral binding and sturdy card stock pages to hold up to enthusiastic flap-turning, AlphaBot is full of appeal for young robot lovers, preschoolers who love machines, and anyone looking for STEM books for the younger set. Back matter includes a brief explanation of the three key abilities of robots: to sense, think, and act.
