Description
George Gearing is a whiz with mechanics, which isn’t surprising, since his uncle runs a scrapyard. George has a ton of friends—but unfortunately they are all either robotic or over 65. But when his best bot, Jackbot, gets an unexpected upgrade, things start to change. Jackbot’s amazing new abilities catch the eye of Dr. Micron, head of robotics at TinkerTech, and suddenly George thinks that his future isn’t so bleak after all. Then Jackbot is kidnapped, and all the robots in town start losing control. Suddenly it’s up to George and his new friend Anne to test their mettle and save the day.

My son, 9, finished the third book of this trilogy last night. He's about as average as a boy can be. He's not crazy about reading (or writing). He's not known for his empathy. So when he starts to tear up and has trouble speaking over his trembling chin as he tells me about the climax of the whole story in the final book, I pay attention. The moral dilemma that the main character faced was heart-breaking for my son.Never fear, all ends well, and the trilogy as a whole has ranked as one of my boy's favorites. This third book was the best, according to him.I should mention that he read these actively, not passively, and he wrote nightly summaries (scrutinizing details about character, setting, plot, for school) after reading 2-3 chapters each day. The side-effect was a deeper investment in the story, hence (I think) his strong reaction.It's not Pulitzer Prize material, but I don't freaking care. If a story can captivate and move a young man, then, holy guacamole, it's a winner.
