Robots

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Frank Picini. This hodgepodge of robot data deals with their evolution, from early clumsy attempts to animate machines to today's sophisticated devices used in industry and medicine. Each double-page spread examines a different topic (e.g., "Spy Bots," "Robots in Space") using numerous foldouts and life-the-flaps. There's not much continuity, but robot lovers will appreciate the interactive format and the many illustrations. Timeline. Glos.
