This graphic novel sets out to teach kids how to code. How to think like a robot would think. An old tech robot has been wreaking havoc all over the town. It will take a technomancer to get him working right, and one girl to ask a million questions that leads to a small robot revolt. The author does a great job of drawing comparison to this advanced civilizations “eggs” and modern smartphones. It includes lessons on jailbreaking, not how to do it, but why it’s good and why it’s bad. It gets into privacy violations, and when is a good time, and not a good time to share everything with friends and strangers. The artwork is like an acid trip: full of colors and strang creations. Overall this was a fun read, but it can get a little bogged down when it talks in code.
