My Robot's Birthday Party (1994)

The Robot
I found the robot pieces. I put the pieces together so it looked like a robot. I named him Zachary. The next day it was Zachary's birthday party. One day Zachary snorted because it was his birthday party. Zachary was 18 years old.

My Robot (1994)

The March 19, 1994 Daily Register (Oelwein, IA) published the short stories of local first-grade students. Wings Park teacher, Barb Ehlers, asked her students to write about their robots and received some pretty awesome responses.

Nowhere is there any indication that the aforementioned robots are imaginary, so I will assume that these robots actually exist. I expect this series to be more interesting than the A-Z states experiment.

But no promises.

These stories seem to be crying out for drawings. Feel free to submit any that you are inspired to create: matt[at]paleofuture.com
