How to Train Your Evil Robot
by Joy McCullough
How to Train Your Evil Robot is the wildly funny picture book that helps kids make sense of the AI world they’re already living in—without any of the anxiety, and with all of the laughs. One kid, one skeptical dog, and one very overconfident robot walk readers through what AI can do, what it can’t, and why being human is still pretty great. Perfect for curious kids, savvy parents, and anyone who wants to stay one step ahead of the robots.
