Robby Just Wants to Help: A Fengtastic Tale About Learning and AI, by Tiankai Feng
How do you explain AI to a child? With a robot, two brothers, and a cookie recipe involving pickles and glitter.
Meet Robby—a helpful little robot who just wants to get things right. The only problem? He takes instructions a bit too literally, makes up facts when he’s unsure, and once turned a bedroom into a pile of neatly sorted furniture parts. Through laughter and a few mishaps, brothers Sky and Cloud realize that even clever machines need good teachers. This warm and funny story introduces children to the basics of artificial intelligence—while reminding us all that some things, like imagination and kindness, will always be uniquely human. Perfect for curious kids aged 4-12 and the grown-ups reading alongside them.
