This title is #4 in the DATA Set series. It is an early chapter book and can be considered science fiction.
Gabe, Laura and Cesar are the brainy group of friends that make up the DATA Set of their school. In this book, the students are challenged by their science teacher, Mrs. Bell, to build robots that would make life better. The friends are up to the task and with the aid of their friend, wacky scientist Dr. Bunson, they perfect their robots.
But, chaos reigns, on presentation day, when the robots malfunction and take over the school. The DATA Set and their new classmate, Olive, need to save the day!
The story is a fun read with diverse characters and a science theme, which will be welcome in schools, given the current STEAM emphasis. Verdict: Add it to your collection. There are very few early science fiction chapter books and this fill this niche.
