My youngest cat Nokley climbed the shelves and threw this book to the floor. It seemed appropriate to read it to him. 😹
Shockingly, he actually say at my feet and listened. He even looked at the pages when I turned the book around to show him the pictures. If it can keep the attention of my baby, it clearly deserves fine stars.

This one described humans and their need to conquer just a little too well.

I'm not sure if the language of the time (first published in 1942) included the use of the phrase "infinite loop" as we understand it in regards to programming today, but I love how easily and obviously the concept was described without the phrase. I also love the introduction of the three laws of robotics. I've known the laws for most of my life, I suppose, but I've never read their original introduction into our world until I read this story. :-D
