Rebecca, his daughter, must be a poet. ?áThis is written with an odd metrical style that is perfect for robots cobbled from second-hand parts. ?áThe story line feels like it's the introduction to a series - all world-building and abrupt ending, unfortunately. ?á But the pix are delightful, with lots of detail to pore over. ?áAnd the theme is a good one about mutually supportive friendships.
