“The title doesn't lie! Bob Katovich combines his robot-building expertise and his trademark whimsy to deliver a book that is engaging, approachable, and highly educational. Appropriate for the classroom, a makerspace, or at home, each project utilizes simple materials and methods to create myriad robotic designs that work as-is but also have the potential to be limitlessly expanded upon. This is a must-have for anyone searching for an empowering and humorous introduction to robotics.”―Alison Earnhart, NBCT, engineering educator“Bob’s well-organized book easily guides young readers and hobbyists to small electronics mastery while also providing cultural context and even whimsical flair. This foray into STEAM projects will have you feeling 'powerful and confident, like a science wizard.’”―Maris Polanco, scientist, educator, and artist
