TrooFriend chapter book and activity pack

When the perfect friend starts to feel a little too human Sarah wanted a dog, not a robot. But instead she gets Ivy, a TrooFriend 560 designed to be the ideal companion, kind, obedient and programmed never to lie, steal or hurt anyone. Yet the more time Sarah spends with Ivy, the harder it becomes to see her as simply a machine. And when questions begin to emerge about what TrooFriends can really think and feel, Sarah and Ivy find themselves facing choices that could change everything. Told from Ivy’s perspective, TrooFriend by Kirsty Applebaum is a clever, thought-provoking story about friendship, identity and what it really means to be human. The book comes with an exclusive signed bookplate and an activity pack. “Kirsty Applebaum’s TrooFriend is a wonderfully original story about an unexpected friendship, with plenty of heart and thoughtful questions about what it really means to be human." -Madeleine
