Milo the Robot Who Wanted to Feel: Introducing AI as a robot brain that learns over time

Can a robot learn what it means to care?

Meet Milo-a classroom robot who can sing, sort blocks, and solve problems. But when he sees his human friends laughing, crying, and hugging, he realizes something is missing: feelings. So begins Milo's heartfelt journey to understand emotions, friendship, and how to be kind-even without a heart.

In this gentle, imaginative story for children ages 3 to 5, young readers are introduced to:

• Robots and how they work (wheels, sensors, wires, and computer brains)

• The basics of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in simple, child-friendly terms

• Emotions like happiness, sadness, and empathy-explained through relatable scenes

• The powerful idea that you don't need to feel emotions to understand and show kindness

With warm illustrations and an uplifting message, Milo the Robot Who Wanted to Feel blends STEM learning with emotional growth, showing kids that even the smartest machines need a little heart-and a good friend.

Perfect for classrooms, bedtime, or storytime, this book inspires young minds to explore big ideas while staying grounded in the values that matter most.
