For Eliza
This is Doug. He’s a robot.
Doug and his parents are going to visit the grandbots!
“Everyone plug in!” said Dad.
“We’ll be driving through farm country,” said Mom. “You can learn all about farms on the way.”
Doug’s parents wanted him to be the smartest robot ever.
Doug learned bushels of facts about farm things:
a baby pig is called a piglet
horses can pull plows
cows need to be milked every day
chickens lay eggs
