INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Chang, Margaret

Celia's Robot

(3) 4-6 Fifth grader Celia Chow has always been messy and disorganized, which is why her scientist father builds her a high-tech robot for her birthday. Chang deftly combines the story's sci-fi elements (i.e., Celia's interaction with her robot) with the endearing narrator's everyday problems, from wanting to spend more time with her workaholic parents to dealing with the school bully's teasing.
