This book held my 6 year old’s attention from start to finish over several nights of reading. The book has just enough pictures to keep her nearby, and some basic language so she can read along if wanted. I do have to question how nobody realized Ada was colorblind until now, but otherwise it’s a cute story of a girl who loves science and robotics.
We have the entire series, so I don’t know why we started with the second book, but I’m sure we’ll be reading more of these.

I love this new series! Ada is building robots and solving problems. I love her character and enjoy a series that strongly represents females being successful with STEM.

Ada is color blind. What an interesting (and ironic) twist considering her artistic parents. Another great story with a science-minded girl. This book has a little jealousy over attention a friend is getting from Ada's art teacher dad, along with a competition against her "kid-enemy" for the best robot. Good, solid relationships, fun dialogue and an all around good read. I'd love to see more science-loving girls in middle grade lit!

Cute story that my kindergartner enjoyed. Rather predictable, and the characters aren't very well developed. Very archetypal and stereotypical, but interesting nonetheless.
