Robots (Scholastic Reader, Level 2)

A Scholastic Level 2 Reader that answers early readers' questions about robots!

The world is being taken over by robots! There are robots that build towers, make cars, fix bridges, and play soccer. There are robots that travel deep under water, far into space, and into the most extreme danger zones. Some walk like a human, others fly like a bee, slither like a snake, or run like a cheetah. In this Level 2 reader, young readers will discover different kinds of robots: how they work, the jobs they do, and what exciting things they might do in the future. The book uses simple text and full-color photographs throughout. With compelling themes, supporting facts, technical vocabulary, vivid maps and charts, and a variety of writing styles and text structures, Scholastic Discover More Readers are tailored to the new era of high expectations. The unique informational text reading levels have been developed and vetted by Scholastic reading experts.
