Watchdog

Thirteen-year-old twins Vick and Tara have built an incredible machineâ€”a loyal robotic watchdog named Daisy.Â 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. BecauseÂ Daisy is more than just any robotâ€”sheâ€™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 smartâ€”or as faithfulâ€”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 aÂ lotÂ more intimidating!
