The New Neighbor
A new family moves in next door, and Raseel is sure of one thing: her garden — and her robot best friend, Robo — are hers alone. But when Robo takes her instructions a little too literally, Raseel learns that showing someone the things you love doesn't make them smaller. It makes them more fun.

Peek inside
Robo springs into action exactly as trained: he leaps in front of the gate, front paws wide, eyes flashing red.
Robo: "Beep-beep! Stop! Not on the list!"
Elias: "Oh! Okay — okay, sorry!"
Raseel holds the new FRIEND card up to Robo's forehead camera. Elias leans in, fascinated. Robo's eyes shift slowly from gold to a soft, warm blue.
Robo: "Elias. Friend. Robo is ready to help!"
