The future is here. Robots are no longer just the preserve of science fiction! Readers will hang out in a factory with a pizza-making robot, blast into the past to meet the robot statues in ancient Egyptian temples, and encounter the slithering robot inspired by snakes! With beautiful illustrations by Amy Grimes, this children's book explains what artificial intelligence is, how robots are made, and how we can machines them in all sorts of amazing ways, from driverless cars to robots who can help in disaster zones.
