Gr 3-6–This interactive nonfiction title introduces young readers to the world of artificial intelligence, exploring concepts from machine learning to robotics with engaging flaps, diagrams, and illustrated scenarios. Frith’s accessible text balances curiosity and caution, offering glimpses into both the potential and the challenges of AI. While the format feels playful, the content occasionally oversimplifies complex ideas, and some predictions may feel speculative rather than evidence based. Still, the book’s energetic presentation and practical examples make it an appealing introduction to an ever-evolving topic.
VERDICT A bright, browsable choice for STEM collections.
