'Rusty The Squeaky Robot' by Neil Clark is about a little robot trying to live with the horrible noise he makes. Along the way he learns that it's ok to be a bit different.

Rusty is unhappy because of the squeak he makes, but he finds some new friends that make some odd noises of their own too. There are Belle and Twango and Boom-Bot and others who show Rusty that he can make noise along with them.

It's a cute story with really cute geometric illustrations. I love some of the lettering and how all of the robots look. I think it's a good choice for a read aloud book for young kids. The lesson is pretty good too.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group-words and pictures, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

I love robot picture books, so I had high expectations for “Rusty the Squeaky Robot.” They were met! I loved it, and it’s perfect for story time because it’s short and has a lot of great sound effects. Wonderful!

Rusty doesn't like the way he squeaks, but with help from the other robots (who each make their own noise), he learns friendship and self-acceptance. A fun robot book with a good message.

Rusty is a squeaky robot who is doesn't like his squeak! His friends help him see that everybot is different and that is what makes them all special. This is a fun book about accepting yourself for who you are. I love the illustrations.

***I was provided this ARC in exchange for an honest review from Netgalley and Quarto Publishing Group***

The illustrations in this book were out of this world! They complimented the story perfectly! The message of the story is also something that I can totally get behind! Be yourself and love everything about yourself, even the squeaky loud parts! The parts that you cannot hide but do love! Own your shortcomings and encourage others to love theirs as well to form the bonds of real friendship!

I would recommend this story to everyone with young to second grade age children. The message alone is enough to make me buy this book for my own children! Thank you, for allowing me early access to this title and for this review!!!

I received an email stating that since I've enjoyed another Quarto kid book they're sharing another one. I didn't request it but it's adorable.



The message of the book is it is okay to be different and like yourself. It's short, colorful and easy to read font.

Rusty must learn to live with what makes him different from all the other robots. as a teacher, I must add that this is the perfect book for teaching onomatopoeia.

This was such a cute book. I think kids will really enjoy all the robots and the sounds they make. A great book to show kids that our quirks make us different but also special and when we have friends who accept those quirks amazing things can happen.
