Book Review: My Teacher’s a Robot! by Phil Barnes

This is the first book by new children’s book author Phil Barnes. Kids love it so it looks like there will be a series about strange teachers expanding soon.

“With wide, cold eyes, a clenched jaw, and superhuman strength, something’s not right about new teacher Miss Ironside. Will quickly realises… she’s a robot! One by one, his classmates are being brainwashed after school. Will and his friends must act fast to save everyone before it’s too late!”

My test reader for this book is a 9-year-old boy and he read the 63 pages long book quickly during a weekend. He said it was it was very enjoyable and exciting! The book is apparently full of tension and emotion and keeps kids hooked throughout. I like the short length that lets kids focus on reading one book in a short amount of time which is extra important when it’s an exciting story like this one where you’ll be wondering what will happen next if you don’t read it quickly enough! I would recommend it to boys and girls between 7 and 10 years old.

My Teacher’s a Robot! was published on the 30th of September 2015 by Austin Macauley Publishers and is available to buy from Amazon.co.uk.
