It is a story of a boy who has to deal with his best friend moving away. The book tells the story of a robot the he creates to take the place of his friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The book was written a few years ago, but I did not know how to go about getting it illustrated and published. I was fortunate to come across Wiggles Press. Rochelle O'Neal Thorpe liked the story and encouraged me to get it illustrated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found the illustrators in the strangest of places. My own home. My twin daughters happen to be very gifted artists.
