Review

"Robots!" the newest book in the "Disaster Diaries" series by R. McGeddon (get it?) follows kids Sam, Arty, and Emmie as they try to thwart the takeover of their town, Sitting Duck, by both an army of household appliances (lead by Arty's science fair project, a robot named CHARLES who goes rogue) and a military leader and his soldiers who have placed a dome over the town and law enforcement lasers everywhere. This may seem impossible, but they have fought zombies, aliens, and brainwashing in previous books. The book is funny and the illustrations are great. Not a must-buy, but worth purchasing if you have the other books in the series. ~Reviewed by Katherine Radke

Overall Book Score: good
