Penguin Random House: Doug Unplugged by Dan Yaccarino

Curated by ACT

This is an introduction to the children's novel Doug Unplugged by Dan Yaccarino, a science fiction book for young readers. It includes a brief summary, links to about the author information, book reviews, and other books by the author. Doug is a robot. His parents want him to be smart, so each morning they plug him in and start the information download. After a morning spent learning facts about the city, Doug suspects he could learn more about the city by going outside and exploring it, but he must "unplug" to accomplish this. What will happen to Doug?
