Pixel and Chip: The Family Circuit

Meet Pixel, a curious robot who loves to learn new things!

Pixel lives with his loving human family and his best friend, Chip the dog. Although Pixel shines at solving math problems and sharing fun facts, he doesn’t always understand his human companions.

So, Pixel sets out to tackle a new challenge: learning how to be a “good human.” Can he discover how to make choices the human way, with emotions and logic?  

Pixel and Chip: The Family Circuit offers a friendly and engaging introduction to artificial intelligence and robotics for young readers and their families. With Pixel’s help, learn how to engage with new technology and recognize when human instincts are best. As humanoid helpers like Pixel enter society and homes, this forward-thinking tale will spark lively discussions and prepare families for a harmonious, tech-infused tomorrow.
