Helpful Helen the Robot by Bob Wilson
When Tom and his parents move to their new house they hear strange noises coming from the shed next door. Tom helps his parents tidy the junk-filled garden in the hope that his dad will build him a pirate ship play-house. But Mum and Dad tire easily. Then Tom finds out that the neighbour is an inventor. He's invented a robot called Helpful Helen. She can do jobs about the house and garden. Tom's dad is very excited by the robot and gives her a long list of instructions. But oh no! He hasn't spoken slowly. And Helen is programmed to be very helpful. It looks like things are about to get a bit higgledy-piggledy. This is a very funny story about a robot gone haywire!
