Robot Burp Head Smartypants

Annette Simon’s rival robots are back with a new game of nutty and bolty — or is that burpy? — one-upmanship.

Robot and Robot are thirsty. How about a big gulp of engine oil? Ga-lugg! Guzzle! Mmm, mmm — BurrRRRP! Oops! Pardon me! Of cour —Burrrrrp! — ourse! Oh, pardon me!
On your mark, get set, belch! The green and purple robots from Robot Zombie Frankenstein! are back for a second round of "Top This" games! Burp to ten? Easy! Burp the alphabet? No sweat! Burp by tens while blindfolded, juggling, and skateboarding? Yikes! Reluctant readers won’even notice that they’re learning as they laugh out loud at the wacky antics of these irreverent robotic pals."Complementing an opening spread filled with numerals from 1 to 10 and then by 10s to 100, an equally colorful set of the 26 letters in the “REAL alphabelch” closes this minimalist crowd pleaser with further opportunities to help the diapered set leave pre-numeracy and preliteracy behind." —Kirkus ReviewsAnnette Simon was once an advertising creative director who wrote and art-directed national print and TV campaigns. Now she’s an author-illustrator who creates picture books. Annette Simon lives in Florida.
