LitPick Review
Snoot is a robot or more specifically a Drudgebot, but he does not llok like the other Drudgebot, he is smaller and not made of bronze. Some Drudgebots are required to plug into a cylinder to preform math problems to charge the city in which they live and to supply the valuable light to all the robots. The Drudgebot are under the command of the Halobots, Guardbots, and Father Screen, the leader of all the robots. There is a unspoken question that all of the Drudgebots have. Where do the Halobots, Guardbots, and Father Screen live? Through Snoot's courageous acts the Drudgebots find out horrible secrets that will save all of lives and distroy their oppresors.
Opinion:
This was a great story that has an important message of going against the grain. Not only because Snoot looked different but also because he was shorter, making the book appeal to a wider range of children. The book was very short, 103 pages, and had great illustrations done by Kathryn Otoshi. It would be a good book for reluctant or younger readers, although to get the true meaning an older age should most likely read it.
