Roger was a shy, quiet kid who loved to read, write, and draw. He 

was really interested in science fiction and wanted to be an 

astronaut when he grew up.

Roger didn't fit in at school. He was a little clumsy and didn't like to 

play sports with the other boys. He'd rather read in the library or draw 

pictures.

He was a pretty lonely kid. He didn't have many friends and kept to 

himself. His parents had also recently divorced and so he spent the 

week with his Mom and the weekend at his Dad's house.

One Friday night, while he was reading a story about robots, Roger 

had an idea.   Why not build a robot to be his best friend? He had 

some tools and other supplies and so he went to work. 

Roger was making a lot of noise as he built his robot. "What are you 

doing up there?" his Mom asked. "Just working on my spelling 

homework!" Almost there, almost there and.............done! He did it!

Roger turned on the switch and waited. Nothing happened at first 

but then, he spoke. "Hello Human" the robot said. "It's alive!" Roger 

joyfully shouted. "Robbie the Robot!" He was so proud of himself. 

As the weeks passed by, Roger and Robbie became really good 

friends. Roger started to enjoy sports and he had made a couple of 

new buddies at school. He was also starting to develop some 

confidence.
