Editorial Reviews

Review

Praise for My Teacher is a Robot:

“Brown’s madcap comics-style book, with dialogue in speech bubbles, lets Fred’s thoughts run wild, with spiders, dinosaurs and mayhem visiting the classroom.” —The New York Times Book Review

"An entertaining romp through the mind of a child who refuses to settle for boring."  -Kirkus Reviews

“Sure to be a hit because of the large, colorful illustrations…. A great pick for a read-aloud to first and second graders who will understand the concept of not wanting to go to school but enjoying it anyway.” —School Library Journal

Praise for Lucy & Andy Neanderthal:

A Junior Library Guild Selection
A New York Public Library's Best 50 Books for Kids 2016 Pick
A Chicago Public Library's Best of the Best 2016 List Pick
A 2016 National Parenting Product Award-winner
Debuted at #14 on the Indie Early & Middle Grade Bestseller List

"Kids will learn a great deal about the Neanderthals while laughing their way through the story. Brown demonstrates a depth of knowledge of the subject, with a few winking anachronisms." -School Library Journal

"Lucy & Andy are Stone Age rock stars!  I loved this book!" -Lincoln Peirce, author of the Big Nate series 

"Jeffrey Brown returns from a galaxy far, far away to bring us a whole new slew of kid-friendly characters! Just beware of mammoth dung!" -Keith Knight, author of Jake the Fake and The Knight Life

Jeffrey has written a number of autobiographical books for adults, humorous graphic novels about cats, and parodies like Incredible Change-Bots. His middle grade series Lucy & Andy Neanderthal was 40,000 years in the making, telling the story of a kid sister and brother living in the Stone Age, along with real research into life in prehistoric times. He also paid tribute to all the great teachers he's had with the picture book My Teacher Is A Robot.

Currently, Jeffrey is blasting off into space with his new middle grade series, Space-Time! The first book, Once Upon A Space-Time!, follows Petra and Jide, two human kids who get to take a trip to Mars, where they meet aliens and robots - and get ready for a galactic adventure with minimal adult supervision!

Each volume of Space-Time! will also include an all new Lucy & Andy Neanderthal short story!

4.0 out of 5 stars Ignite your imagination
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2019
This book was created by the author of the New York Times bestselling Jedi Academy books. Fred balks and doesn't want to go to school because he thinks it's too boring. Why would he want to leave his room that is filled full of robotic images, posters, dinosaurs, planets and a rug covered with toy dinosaurs? His environment at home is exciting, futuristic, magical, and far from boring, unlike the environment of stupid old school.

Fred's dad drops him off and yep, Fred's prediction is right...

"Class is SO boring. Everything Mr. Bailey says is robot talk."

Fred's mind tunes out his teacher's monotone voice and drifts off to places unknown. His imagination awakens and off he goes. It transforms school from humdrum into one of exhilaration. Yahooooo!

At recess Fred and his friends morph into superheroes and battle mud monsters. As the day progresses so does Fred's fantasies. At the end of the day his creative writing assignment becomes a wordless compilation of robots, swords, medieval garb, dinosaurs and even unicorns. Oh my, there is no end to where Fred's creative thinking skills can take him.

The book depicts racial diversity and the comic-book-style illustrations are vibrant and explosive using strong colours. Kids will find this book amusing as it celebrates the power of make-believe. Kids will be empowered to remake their own boring world into an exciting parallel one full of action and fun. I like the book but I felt the storyline is not a strong one.

1.0 out of 5 stars Needless Killing, Bully Main Character, Unresolved Story
Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2019
The main character, Fred, complains constantly and kills a spider for no reason. He's also mean to his classmates and teacher, bad attitude. And the whole teacher-as-robot thing is flat. Missed opportunity.
