About this ebook
So the pair tries out a series of jobs to make some quick cash—dusting the furniture (Mom didn’t mean dumping the dust from the vacuum on the couch), holding a flea market (10 cents a flea!), and even starting a dog grooming/walking business (which is pretty ruff).
Finally, they decide to try a bake sale, only they’re out of chocolate chips, so they use bacon instead. Customers think their cookies are disgusting, but a dog accidentally gets one and scarfs it right down. Logan and Java make a lousy cookie, but a perfect dog treat!
After earning the money they need, they buy the new haircutting machine and slip it into Mom’s workshop so she’ll never know. Or will she?
International bestselling author Nancy Krulik and her incredibly talented daughter, Amanda Burwasser, spin hilarious high jinks in the fifth book in the Project Droid series, which combines the literalness of Amelia Bedelia with a wacky modern edge, making for hours of laughter. And the fun continues with an activity in the back!

Give a 'Bot a Bone - Nancy Krulik
1.
Rules, Schmools
Plink. Plank. Plunk
Plink. Plank. Plunk.
I sat there listening to the raindrops hit our living room window.
Plink. Plank. Plunk.
Plink. Plank. Plunk.
Boy, do I hate rainy Saturdays. I had nothing to do except look in the mirror and count my eyelashes.
I was so bored.
My cousin, Java, wasn’t bored though. He was busy playing with my mom’s smartphone.
Hey, Spike,
my cousin asked the phone, do you know what happened to the leopard that fell in the washing machine?
It came out spotless,
Spike answered. I’ve heard that one before.
Oh brother.
I’m so tired of hanging around all day,
I moaned.
Java’s eyes opened wide.
He smiled excitedly.
And then he shouted, "I can do it!"
Java leaped up in the air and grabbed on to one of the blades of our ceiling fan.
What are you doing?
I asked.
I’m hanging around, too,
Java replied.
I watched Java spin around and around on the ceiling fan until I got dizzy.
Get down from there,
I ordered him. You look ridiculous.
Okay,
Java said. He let go of the fan and landed on the ground with a loud thud.
Shhh …
I warned. Mom’s taking a nap. Can’t you hear her snoring through the door?
Of course I can hear her,
Java said. My supersonic ears can hear everything.
Java wasn’t kidding. He really does have supersonic ears.
He also has eyes that can shoot laser beams.
And feet that can spring him up into the air like a rocket.
That’s because Java isn’t your typical third grade kid.
In fact, he isn’t actually a kid at all. He’s my android cousin.
My mom is a scientist. She likes to build things. So she built him.
My robot cousin’s name is Jacob Alexander Victor Applebaum. But I just call him
