Fuzzy

In this sci-fi middle school adventure by the New York Times best-selling author of the Origami Yoda series, one girl and one robot team up to save their school.

From the minds of Tom Angleberger, the New York Times best-selling author of the wildly popular Origami Yoda series, and Paul Dellinger, an adult science-fiction writer, comes a funny middle school story with a memorable robot title character. Reluctant listeners and robot lovers in elementary and middle school will enjoy this fast-paced listen that shows just how strange a place middle school can be, particularly when the new student is a state-of-the-art robot.

When Max - Maxine Zealster - befriends her new robot classmate, Fuzzy, part of Vanguard One Middle School's new Robot Integration Program, she helps him learn everything he needs to know about surviving middle school - the good, the bad, and the really, really, ugly. Little do they know that surviving sixth grade is going to become a true matter of life and death, because Vanguard has an evil presence at its heart: a digital student evaluation system named BARBARA that might be taking its mission to shape the perfect student to extremes!

With a strong female main character who will appeal to all listeners, Tom Angleberger and Paul Dellinger's new novel offers listeners a fresh take on robots. Fuzzy will find its place in the emerging category of best-selling books featuring robots, including Jon Scieszka's Frank Einstein series and James Patterson's House of Robots.
