That sounds like an interesting book. I think it would be weird if a crazy dude came up to me and said " we have magic cardboard." I think I would run away screaming.
ReplyDeleteYou know how little kids sometimes love the box more than the present? This sounds like an amplified version of that premise. Who wouldn't want to have magic cardboard, however it sounds like there are unintended consequences.
ReplyDeleteThis book looks very cool. I always think of what it would be like to have real life robots! Great job on the book review.
