Robots, research, and a mission gone haywire make for one out-of-this-world adventure! 🤖🚀⁠
⁠
In Space Bot: Mission Earth by @superjanesmith, Space Bot has traveled from beyond the stars to collect data on human habitats, diets, and behaviors, all in the name of testing its “friendliness hypothesis.” But when its mission goes spectacularly off course, Space Bot finds itself stranded and about to get much closer to its human subjects than planned.⁠
⁠
Blending sci-fi adventure with scientific terminology, playful sound effects, and warm mixed-media illustrations, this inventive picture book transforms an experiment in observation into a sweet exploration of empathy, helpfulness, and community.⁠
⁠
Perfect for young readers who love robots, outer space, and science with plenty of heart. 🤖💫⁠
