According to Phil: A Young Thinker's Guide to Robots
Praise for According to Phil:
“The writer must have an education background because good practices are embedded in the text. For example, the reader is asked to think about what he knows about robots before he reads, to compare and contrast robots and humans using a graphic organizer, and to "interview" a robot, to name a few of the reader–centered activities in the book. These techniques make the book very appropriate to support both inquiry and good reading practices…The story is full of colorful pictures, drawings, and charts.”
