"In which we discover how the human imagination trumps technology every time."
Bored with playing on her own in Granny’s garden, Bella builds herself a robot and teaches him how to do things.
Blue Robot is great - possibly even too good - at making cakes, but hopeless at playing dressing up. With Riley, newly moved in next door, Bella builds a second, better robot. Red Robot is great at football, not so good at sharing, and still really bad at make believe.
So, Bella and Riley dream up a project that is perfect for the robots, and which allows the two of them to have fun playing and creating to their hearts’ content.
With AI narrowly beaten into second place as Oxford Children’s Word of the Year, this is a valuable and entertaining reminder for young children that humans definitely beat robots when it comes to the things that really matter, and that the imagination is the most powerful tool of all.
Bella is missing her friends after a long summer staying at Granny's so decides to build a robot to play with. The robot is a fast learner but not much good at activities that need imagination. With the help of her new neighbour, Riley, they build a better robot. But can the best robot in the universe do everything you want it to? A timely tale exploring artificial intelligence and the power of human imagination.
