When Grandma invents a robot to take care of twins Jake and Jess, chaos ensues! Robin is embarrassing, clumsy and, worst of all, programmed to make them do their homework. They're also pretty sure he thinks their dog is a baby.

The twins decide they have to do something before everyone realizes that Robin is a robot. But getting rid of their new babysitter will mean putting aside their sibling squabbles and working together, which might be an even bigger challenge...

My Babysitter Is a Robot by Dave Cousins captures the hilarious and adventurous misadventures of trying to outsmart a robot that just won’t quit!
