Clink’s a heartstring-tugger, all right, but kids will be tickled by all the other absurdly outfitted robots bouncing around the brightly colored pages as well. A warm, funny reminder that unique individuals make for unique friends, and that it’s OK to wait for that perfect fit.” - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“DiPucchio’s text percolates with plenty of humor, and Myers has a wonderful time drawing gems like the victim of Clink’s disastrous haircuts and the polka-dot underpants a fellow robot offers to Clink as consolation. Extra marks for the distinctive combination of geek elements with a dash of sentimentality.” - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly (starred review)\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“DiPucchio skillfully mixes the self-esteem-building moral with a retro quality, and parents will dig the sense of nostalgia-for-the-simpler-things the way youngsters will the sparky robot theme. Myers’s paintings burst with loud colors and an energy that’s perfect for a store-and story-full of bopping robots and smiling clientele.” - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Horn Book\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clarion Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44887949639909,"sku":"NP9780061929281","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780061929281.jpg?v=1730227802","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/clink-isbn-9780061929281","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
