The Junkyard Bot

195 pp. | Houghton | October, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-0-544-33936-1 $13.99
(4) 4-6 Robots Rule series. Illustrated by Goro Fujita. In Terabyte Heights most robots just work for humans, but George Gearing's Jackbot is his best friend. After Jackbot is hit by a car, George rebuilds his companion with cutting-edge parts that grant him artificial intelligence--a discovery hijacked by megalomaniac Dr. Micron. Despite a transparent villain, the offbeat humor, endearing characters, and frequent spot art make for a lighthearted series-starter.
