We thought this was funny. There was not much substance to it, but it was a fun read aloud that is still requested.

Love the vintage print style of illustration, but the story was an odd one.

A sweet, earnest robot yearns for a better life, a life outside of the basement bathroom he has to clean. He tries multiple silly methods of escape, but finally finds a savior in a honky-tonk loving window washer. Super cute and charming.

Robomop just wants to get out of the bathroom where he's been set to work all day alone by himself. He wants to see the outdoors and go on adventures. He wants to meet new people and he wants to do wonderful things with his time. He's just cut out for so much more than bathroom duty.

My roommate brought this home with her one evening and we had a good laugh reading it. The story is really cute and definitely something that kids will be able to relate to in terms of wanting to escape responsibilities that may feel stifling. The illustrations are both interactive and entertaining through their use of movement. A very adorable read.

Screw Kirkus - I think this book is a treasure.
