Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
For fans of Todd Parr and Oliver Jeffers comes this debut picture book about a boy and his robot friend from the creator of the popular crowd-sourced comic blog, explodingdog.com
For a little boy who's always dreamed of having his own robot, actually getting one isn't what he expected at all. The robot can't fly, or swim, or even talk. All he does is beep beep beep like a toy. But his robot does have some hidden talents--and one of them is being a great friend.
In this unexpectedly poignant story about adjusting expectations, Sam Brown shows that while no one is perfect, a good friend sure comes close.
A boy who has long dreamed of having adventures with a real robot finds one in his backyard and, although it is not all he expected, it promises something more.
