Review

Tin is a charming robot who agrees to watch his little sister who is holding a balloon. Thanks to the family dog Tin soon realizes that Nicole has drifted off toward town. He gets on his bike and the adventurous chase is on.

Readers will love the robot family, their neighbors and the city dwellers who are robots as well. The illustrations are perky, boxy and multifaceted. Colors abound complementing this exciting journey over the city, through the amusement park and into the zoo. Parents will appreciate the display of sibling affection.

Place this is k- 3 media centers and consider as a gift book for robot lovers.

Overall Book Score: good
