| Publisher Description: "Told in jaunty, rollicking rhymes that are enlivened by colorful, humorous digital illustrations, this robot version of a bedtime story demonstrates that, no matter how energetic a little 'bot' may be, there inevitably comes a time when 'batteries are running low!'" --Kirkus Reviews A little robot would rather go on an intergalactic adventure than go to sleep in this rhyming romp that breaks all the bedtime rules. In a busy robot town bots begin to power down. All except for Bitty Bot! Feeling sleepy? Maybe not! Charming text in rhyming verse tells the story of energetic Bitty Bot, who, instead of going to bed decides to build a rocket and go on a space adventure! Sweet and fun to read aloud, this bedtime book is perfect for tots and bots of all varieties. |
