This book is intended to explain robots and artificial intelligence to children. I felt that the message and format were a bit confusing and needed better explanation.

I received an electronic ARC from Ivey Collective DBA AiDigiTales through NetGalley.
A first look at an interactive robot for preschoolers. Addy brought a robot named Jaz to her brother Nolan's birthday party. Readers see Jaz study, learn and interact with both of them. Jaz then uses the night to learn even more from their books and toys while they sleep. In the morning, Jaz shares the song it created from what it learned the day and night before. Though Addy had to take Jaz back to the lab, Nolan hopes to see the robot again. The story ends with hints of more adventures to come.
Ivey offered information on AI in suitable language for this age range and kept the story simple to follow. The illustrations are brightly colored and full of energy. A fun read as a family or class.

I am pretty sure this is the sequel to Ai meats AI. I like the book, but I also hated it because the illustrations were AI which is a big problem in the industry right now since AI illustrations steal from legitimate authors works. The story fits in with its predecessor but it’s slower and not as well done as the first book. The illustrations aren’t as good either. I really want to like this series, but I just can’t.
