There once was a robot and a dog

They went together, like the gears of a cog.

The dog went away

He's gone to this day

While the robot must continue the daily slog. 

This is one of my favorite books that we have published.  Ever.

    Mine too! It’s one of my favorite “truly all ages” books. It made my small daughter cry, but I would still recommend it to her all over again.
