In This Bundle (Books Four to Six):

The Big Trip:
Timbot has always wanted to fly with his dad. As the captain of an interplanetary spaceship, Dadbot has seen some spectacular things. When an opportunity comes for Tim and his mother to go on a trip in his father’s spaceship, they eagerly climb aboard. They travel from one galaxy to another and visit many planets along the way. After a number of weeks and some interesting encounters, Tim is ready to go home. Being away has made Tim appreciate home just a little more.

A Little Kindness:
Timbot takes the trolley to school where he has many friends—each one unique. One of his classmates, Pella, has trouble learning because she can't stay still. Some of the kids at school tease her and call her names. This really bothers Tim and he decides to step in. He turns to his family for help. His Grandpabot has an idea! He makes Pella a contraption that allows her to stop flying so she can learn. Tim learns a lesson, too: helping a friend is a great thing to do.

The Best Prize:
Timbot's dad has some time off work. He decides to take Tim and Grandpabot to the annual "Funniest Fish Derby." Tim desperately wants to win. He is overjoyed when he catches a big fish, but instead of catching a funny fish, he catches a rare one. The local aquarium is called and happily accepts the new and rare specimen. When the fish is released into the big display tank, something amazing happens. Tim, dad and Grandpabot have unwittingly engineered a very happy reunion.
