Little Robot
When a little girl finds an adorable robot in the woods, she presses a button and accidentally activates him for the first time. Now, she finally has a friend. But the big, bad robots are coming to collect the little guy for nefarious purposes, and it's all up to a five-year-old armed only with a wrench and a fierce loyalty to her mechanical friend to save the day!
In the Eisner-winning graphic novel, Little Robot, New York Times Bestselling author Ben Hatke brings his signature sweetness to a simple, moving story about friendship and overcoming fears that will appeal to readers of all ages.

What people are saying
Software Tester. Aspiring astronaut. Proud founding member of The Mars Generation. Addicted to Taebo, Space, Robotics and Coffee.
I found a wonderful children’s book. “Little Robot” from Ben Hatke. It is about the friendship of a little girl with a little robot. It is illustrated beautifully in comic book style and has very little words. People who don’t know the language or how to read can also enjoy it.
