Publisher's Synopsis
Hello, friends!
I'm Victor: a robot vacuum in great shape!
Let me tell you why I decided to escape.
I was born in a factory, two years ago,
and ever since then, I was moved to and fro.
I was packed in a box, moved, and took a fall,
not even knowing where I was headed at all.
When we arrived, I tried to explore
and learned I was in Palo Alto, in the store.
On the shelf in the shop, I felt safe and sound:
Finally, nothing could shake me around!

Reading bedtime stories for my children was a wonderful experience for me and for them.
This interaction created a sense of closeness, pleasant intimacy, and attentiveness while paying full attention to each other. It was quite impactful.
I've always wanted to tell them a story of my own, but I didn't have a unique idea.
But after watching a couple of amusing clips of cats riding robotic vacuum cleaners, I laughed a lot when in one case, the front door was left open and the vacuum cleaner escaped outside.
That clip inspired me to write this story about the relationship between a cat and a vacuum cleaner. It conveys an important message of being attentive to one another, especially when someone taunts us, and especially if someone taunts our children.
With love, Ezekiel
