The Robot and the Bluebird by David Lucas

The Robot and the Bluebird by David Lucas

Let me carry you, said the Robot.

I'll carry you in my heart, and shelter you from the cold and storms.

High atop a pile of rubbish sits a lonely Robot with a broken heart. Then one winter's day, a Bluebird appears, fighting against the freezing wind. When the Robot offers her a home in the empty space where his heart used to be, neither of them can predict what astonishing things will happen. Together the newfound friends set off on a memorable journey that will change them both.

This fable-like tale, bursting with bright, winsome illustrations, is a fresh take on the timeless themes of friendship and second chances.

Lucas, David: - David Lucas is a sixty-four-year-old lawyer, who also manages the Self Managed Family Office (www.smfo.com.au). He is intrigued by the bewildering array of answers to the question why? that humans have given over 130,000 plus years. The contradictions that are inherent in being human-ingenious, naive, stupid, creative, devilishly cunning, messy, kind, cruel, perverse, emotional, unpredictable, logical, self-judging, self-excusing, drama-loving and so drama-creating, altruistic, pitiless-means that the stories to be told of humans are limitless. His legal practice allows him to experience the best and the worst of us. He was born in Fern Tree Gully, Melbourne, is an avid follower of Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League, and lives by the beach in Freshwater, Sydney, with his partner, Cath, and dog, Summer.
