Quick Thoughts: This is one I think belongs is most elementary and middle school libraries. Lots of topics - girl power, science, technology, STEAM - mixed with magical realism. Strong themes of persistence and tenacity. Great characters with strong personalities. Includes bonus illustrations that work well to portray the feelings in the tale. Lots of reader personalities would like this one!

2 girls, Penny Rose and Lark, have never quite fit in but both long for friendship. Once they realize their differences makes them perfect for each other, they friendship blossoms. They bond over science and the Weird Little Robots. Friendship, confidence, and the robots are all threatened and the girls need to use each other's strengths and support to get through it.

It is a good story with interesting main characters. The characters are fallible but learn from mistakes, grow together, and display a touching tenderness. Social pressure, trust, and admitting one's mistakes all come in to play. Strong STEM themes should encourage and appeal female and male readers alike.

The robots play a supporting role and definitely could have a book of their own as their story line was interesting and fun.

Artwork is fun and adds a lot to appeal of the story. (

I enjoyed this book. I think my daughter will also enjoy it in a year or two. The social messages are a little advanced for her at the moment (she is in kindergarten). I like the example it sets of girls liking science and math. It deals with topics of social pressure, trying to fit in, and staying true to yourself well. The characters don't always make the right decisions, but they learn from their mistakes and come around in the in. I wish they magic of the robots had been explored a little more. The illustrations were sweet and engaging. I think this is a good book for 3rd-5th graders. (

I received this book as an early reviewer this summer. This story is about 2 girls, Penny Rose and Lark, who are different from others. Their friendship gets challenged when one tries to be in a secret society. The book shows girls in a positive way, utilizing science and excelling in the field.

I really enjoyed the book. I passed it on to one of my 5th grade library students and her review was that the author needed to turn this book into a series. She wanted more when the story ended.
