Science This is a great book that describes and explains different robots that have been designed based on animal traits Including what inspired them and what they are used for It has great visuals of the robots as well as the animals that inspired a particular robot and explanations of skills that an animal has that a robot borrowed. Bookbox dutch I chose to pair it with an older mystery book called Danny Dunn Scientific Detective by Jay Williams This is a book about a boy who is trying to solve the mystery of a man s disappearance and uses his robotic bloodhound to do it He also creates other inventions as well I thought that this was a good pairing because children might be interested after reading the book to learn where robotic technology is heading and whether or not a robotic bloodhound is in the future Or if children read the book on animal robots first they might enjoy reading what an author has thought might happen with robotic animals. Zombots sonic While the Zoobots book does not talk about robotic bloodhounds it does profile several robots that will have similar functions of finding people once they are perfected The will do it in different ways than a bloodhound but one of their purposes will be to help locate people. Zoo book Merged review The nonfiction book Zoobots is a great little book about where robotics are heading in the future and how animals are inspiring how they are made and what they can do The book explores many different types of robots that are being created and how they behave like different animals. Zombot defense I chose to pair this book with a fiction book called Danny Dun Scientific Detective by Jay Williams This book is about a kid who likes science trying to find a missing person with the help of his robotic bloodhound This works well with a book about robotic animals because kids may be interested in seeing whether or not it is possible for there to be bloodhound robots in the future They may also be interested to see what other robots are coming along as well While the book Zoobots does not have a robotic bloodhound it does have several other types that are being developed to help locate missing people or do search and rescue missions Childrens Books.

Zoobots kindle store To the positive I can see how this book might bridge that gap between animal lover and future engineer Lots of kids love animals and if you can somehow use that inspired interest to get them into math and science classes then that s a real win So conceptually this one has a great head start Also the text is detailed engaging and seems at about the right level for a 10 12 year old child It uses words that they might find challenging but they re often defined in line and there s a glossary if all else fails Finally even as an adult I find these machines potently fascinating so the topic has a broad range of undeniable appeal It is also a great touch that for each Zoobot they include a status indicating just how far along production is. Zoobotsd den haag On the negative side I wish that they had included actual photographs of their subjects All the animals are real enough and many of the Zoobots are working prototypes but all the graphics are illustrations rather than photos While they are great illustrations it gives the book a unnecessarily cartoonish feel Also each Zoobot has a header that s some seemingly appropriate verb For example the pill bug Zoobot s header is Spray with others of Stick Ripple Whip and most off putting of all SNOOORRRFF I found these especially childish and rather a waste of space In summary this book is solid but image is everything when it comes to kids It s filled with interesting content but the presentation seems a bit childish in places and I m concerned that it won t hit the target age group quite the right way Or maybe I just have really picky kids Childrens Books Young Adult Young Adult Science This book is a great take on both robotics and animals Each page gives a detailed description of the inspiration behind the robot what its super power is what it s purpose is and how it works This is followed by a picture of the prototype robot or concept and further description My 8 year old science and nature loving boy called the book Awesome even though the text is a little higher reading level The text would be appropriate for 4th 8th graders An interesting book that science focused kids will love Childrens Books Young Adult Science First reviewed on Redeemed ReaderAnthropomorphic robots are the stuff of science fiction movies but they really exist Zoobots is a very well organized well illustrated guide to some of the anthropomorphic robots which are in actual use right now Ranging from robots based on the lowly roly poly all the way to the human like Geminoid the robots in Zoobots are each meticulously modeled after a particular living creature in an attempt to make use of that creature s unique gifts and abilities The resulting robots can do some amazing jobs from delivering cancer fighting medication at the cellular level to battling large scale forest fires Each robot is described using the following headings name team realm super skill specifications applications and special ops with a final section about the animal that inspired that particular robot A detailed diagram of the robot and a drawing of the living creature accompany the text. Zoo book Of particular note for my conservative friends is the section describing each zoobot s inspiration Its title is Evolved From which appears to be designed to add to the feel of this book as a scientific tome on various animal species This use of words is unfortunate because there is very little else on most of the robots pages that even hints at evolution In fact the mere existence of these amazing animal abilities and the team of humans that is required even to come close to mimicking those traits in robotic form showcases the marvelous complexity of creation itself The Geminoid robot modeled after humans is also written in this vein but the equating of humans with other animals is troublesome Childrens Books Young Adult Science

My son loved this book and found the information fascinating I also found it interesting to learn that robots are made so small and how far technology can go he plans on using this as a science presentation for this years up and coming science fair Thank you for giving us the opportunity to read this book Childrens Books Young Adult Science Drawing on the characteristics of various animals scientists are creating robots that can perform in the same way as those creatures while having the advantage of technology Thus robot prototypes based on the Pygmy Shrew the Snake the Gecko the Bat and even from Bacteria have been designed Two pages show the animal that inspired the creation while describing what each one can do I loved the names of some of these critters Stickybot III Octobot and Shrewbot This is technology at its most fascinating Childrens Books Young Adult Science Heliane Becker has come up with a cute idea with her book Zoobots I have to say the set up was my favorite part The book is set up like a non fiction animal book Each bot gets one page with its facts and statistics Informing the read so they know everything about that particular bot Due to this it was not a read straight through book for me It comes off as of a fictional resource but still cute 3 stars Childrens Books Young Adult Science An amazing little book supposedly written for youth It contains information that I have not seen in adult materials It is succinct understandable and jam packed with information One section even talks about the combination of organic and inorganic materials in a bacterium The illustrations are excellent but may not show a clear picture of the actual bot A good book for all ages Childrens Books Young Adult Science Kids will love this and it s got super cool scientific information too And while I personally think this is fascinating I m frustrated having to wonder WHERE is the bibliography information It feels like it s possible that someone with a very creative mind made this whole thing up And if it s a fictionalized book of zoobots that s fine but it s definitely listed as a nonfiction book Hmmmm Childrens Books Young Adult Science.
