Trapped in a Video Game: Robots Revolt (Volume 3)

I bought this for a 5th grade student. He was so excited because of it being about robots. I wanted to get a book where he could be successful reading it independently over the summer.

my son is enjoying this series. it encourages reading at his level as he is required to read for school.

Was a gift-grandson (age 11) us collecting this series and loved it

As with the first two installments in this series, I finished this quickly -- the reading level is clearly aimed at late-elementary and tween readers. It somehow managed to offer even more action than the prior volumes, though I'm grateful for the moments that allowed me a breather. It picked up immediately from Book 2's ominous cliffhanger; but here, instead of a PokemonGo take, the focus was robots -- not just giants, but sizes ranging down to that of insects.Speaking of which, I appreciated how a newcomer brought in a presence that nearly reminded me of BB-8 from "Star Wars." Not only that, it was refreshing for me to see another introduction break the, shall we say, boy-centric tone of the series. One instance of raw, lonely despair was unexpected -- I'd almost deem it a bit risky for kid-oriented literature. Yet I welcomed it because it injected a dose of realism to all the sci-fi/fantasy goings-on.

Started strong then fizzled. He read the first book in about for five days which is very fast for him. And that is more reading than he ever does But I bought a three pack in the second and third book he's just doesn't seem to have the same interest in them now Not sure if it's just the same thing happening over or if the books are truly different haven't read them myself

I bought my very picky, just turned 8-years-old grandson the first three books of this series for his birthday. It’s usually hit and miss with him BUT he loves them and has read all 3 in the last month! He even indicated he’d like to read the next books in the series. Yeah!

My son loved it

My son absolutely loves these books!!! He's actually a pretty good reader to the point where he was getting bored. Concerned he'd get out of practice, I found these books before Christmas and he's now on the fourth book in just a month( and re-read books one and two twice before getting three and four for his birthday Jan19)! We're already eagerly awaiting book five. It's so great to find a children's chapter book that captivates what so many kids are passionate about.

My grandson loves video games so this was a perfect topic. The books are well written and interesting.

Ideal for my grandson

My son (age 8, 10 months) loves this series of books. He can related to the main character who loves playing video games and thought it was just amazing that you can become part of the game. He is now reading book #4 in the series.

I bought these for my grandson. He loves these books...and has launched him into a love of reading. Too bad there were only 5 books in the series.

Bought for both my 10 year old grandsons. They love this series
