Mr. AI
One day, when Tone and Matteo arrive at school, their teacher is gone. Instead, they have a new substitute. His name is Arnt Ingar, but he says they can just call him
Mr. AI. It takes only a few seconds for the kids to realize that Arnt Ingar is not like other teachers—he’s both the smartest and the dumbest teacher they’ve ever had, if he can even be called a teacher. Because AI isn’t made of flesh and blood—he’s a machine. Or more precisely, a MACHINE TEACHER.
The question is: where has Veslemøy, their real teacher, gone?
Fully illustrated in color by Jenny Naustan.
This book is full of excitement, surprises, humor, and friendship. A lot of readers will get stars in their eyes when they read it.
