“A fun read aloud for parents and great for conversation starters regarding technology in the home.”–School Library Connection“A vigorous, witty and valuable addition to the still too-small shelf of books about girls and engineering.”–The New York Times Book Review“An enjoyable romp for readers, whether they’re plugged in or not.”–Booklist“Charlotte exudes a can-do attitude that kids will find appealing, and that can only lead them to want to know more about building and coding….For 3-to-7-year-olds who’ve never known a world without technology, Doll-E 1.0 will be a delight–especially if they’re the take-things-apart type. And if they’e not, but they like a funny story, this book will be just right.”–Marco Eagle“Charlotte is an engaging character, expressive and thoughtful in equal measure.”–Kirkus Reviews“McCloskey finds the sweet spot between respect for a child’s nerdy passion and the need to connect tinkering with life.”–BCCB“McCloskey’s picture book debut is not one to miss.”–School Library JournalA LITA Science Fiction Notables List Selection 2019A National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) and Children’s Book Council (CBC) Best STEM Trade Book 2019CCBC Choices 2019Charter Oak Children’s Book Award Winner 2019
