So entertaining! You experience a lot in these young written book. I give this book a 4.5 ⭐rating! Has more potential to have been longer. I love "E" is so funny and courageous for a robot. Excited to continue with this series.

Quite an enjoyable read, some brilliant pictures, so many pictures in fact that it slows down the reading as we had to stop and discuss everything that was going on in the pictures.

The story is good too, quite moving at times. My one issue though is that Cooper Elliot should have been expelled for the crap he kept doing.

While not fine literature in any respect, this was an entertaining book with lots of details that will amuse the 8-12 year old set (it's got robots! and possible conspiracies! and bullies who get busted by the end!). It also eschews the potty language, insults, meanness and other dreck that all too often appear in books for that audience. The parents are actually nice and reasonably competent, the kid sister is sweet and adored rather than teased. My kids enjoyed House of Robots thoroughly, and I liked it as well.
