GEORGE the Flybot and the Missing Coins of Black Canyon

by Nessa Bellido Schwarz, Jason Fruchter (Illustrator)

Overview

GEORGE the flybot has a new mission — and a few unexpected new friends! As GEORGE searches the shadowy Black Canyon of Colorado for rare century—old dimes, he meets a grumpy owl and two kindhearted honeybees. GEORGE's sweet new honeybee friends offer to help him search! But when GEORGE discovers that it's dangerous for honeybees to fly after dark, his hunt for the missing coins turns into a race against the setting sun! Book 3 in the GEORGE THE FLYBOT series. "Based on real historical events, this series cleverly combines robotics with history. The grayscale illustrations complement the narrative, bringing GEORGE and his adventures to life. ­VERDICT: A great addition to any chapter book collection." —School Library Journal
