The Boy Who Cried Robots!
Description
Sam tells tall tales about monsters, alligators, and aliens, and his classmates grow wary as his stories spiral out of control. In The Boy Who Cried Robots!, a funny, kid-friendly adventure from the I Like to Read Comics line, robots and goofy creatures collide with real emotions and schoolyard dynamics. Written and drawn by Chris Britt, the 40-page hardcover blends bright, energetic art with approachable humor that helps early readers engage with panels and dialogue. Sam learns a valuable lesson when his exaggerated claims threaten friendships and trust in the community. The story nods to The Boy Who Cried Wolf while delivering a modern twist, showing how neighbors rally to support a kid who's trying to be heard.
