I took this slowly because I found it to be an emotional rollercoaster.
Vic Lawson starts a dangerous chain of events by rescuing a decommissioned robot from a scrap yard in a tale with a touch of Pinocchio, Swiss Family Robinson, The Wizard of Oz...and so much heart. A lone human in a found family of machines, Vic is the beloved son of inventor Giovanni Lawson, but when a salvage trip goes awry, robots from Giovanni’s former life attack their home and take him. So begins Vic’s quest to save his father from the City of Electric Dreams. It’s laugh out loud funny, absolutely heartbreaking, and wonderful!
