Eager Trilogy by Helen Fox - ages 9+
Eager
Book 1
What's the Story?
It's the end of the 21st century where your house watches you, knows your secrets, and talks to you and your closest friend can be a machine. Gavin Bell and his teenage sister Fleur come from a middle-class family. Their much-loved, old-fashioned robot, Grumps, is running down and can’t be repaired, so a scientist friend loans them an experimental new robot to help Grumps out.
EGR3, known as Eager, learns from his experiences, as a child would. He feels emotions—wonder, excitement, and loss. As Eager explores his new emotions and abilities, both he and the Bells are drawn into a great adventure.
What's the buzz?
Warning! Many of these reviews contain spoilers. They all tell you quite a bit about the story. If Eager looks good to you and you like to be surprised by stories ( I do.), I suggest you try Eager without the reviews. Carry on.
