Watchdog

By: Will McIntosh

Narrated by: James Fouhey

Thirteen-year-old twins Vick and Tara have built an incredible machine - a loyal robotic watchdog named Daisy. But, when local crime boss Ms. Alba schemes to add Daisy to her robot army, Vick and Tara must go to great lengths to protect their prized pet. Because Daisy is more than just any robot - she's their constant protector, and together the three make a great team.

Vick and Tara are determined to stop the mob from tearing their little family apart. And they might just succeed! Sure, the evil Ms. Alba has more robot watchdogs, but none are as smart - or as faithful - as their Daisy. Plus, if things get too dangerous, Tara could always upgrade their pet. With her mechanical skills, she could make Daisy bigger, stronger, and a lot more intimidating!

enjoyable read

I enjoyed the easy listen. interesting characters and great imagination. I would recommend this book to all ages.

My kids loved it

The story was interesting and captivating from the start for my kids and myself. The narrator was excellent.

More about Tara’s autism than anything else

Instead of fun, action, and sci-fi, this was mostly about homeless kids Vick and Tara confronting bullies, making do on the streets, and managing with Tara’s autism. Daisy and the other robots were the only fantasy or sci-fi elements in a world that’s never really described. Fine, but nothing to write home about.
