There's a Robot at my Playground is the story of an eight year old girl named Miyoko. Miyoko had a curious mind and wanted to understand how things worked. She loved to go to the playground in her neighborhood. Her favorite things to do were to swing and play with the robot, Ingenuity, or Ginny for short. When the robot wasn't busy fixing things, it would spin her on the merry-go-round, push her on the swing, or ride with her on the teeter-totter. Miyoko wanted to be an engineer to help people, just like Ginny, when she grew up!
