Synopsis

Sam Smart has always wondered why dads come with so many faults. They forget things. They snore. They tell terrible jokes. So when Sam is offered the chance to swap his dad for a state‑of‑the‑art robot, he doesn’t even blink.

A robot dad who never gets tired. Never gets grumpy. And can do ANYTHING? What could possibly go wrong…

Turns out: EVERYTHING.

Sam’s brilliant idea explodes into chaos as the robot begins causing trouble no human dad ever could. Soon his whole life is in meltdown, and Sam discovers the terrifying truth; To fix the disaster he started, Sam must face the robot's creator, the sinister Professor Bruxo Greathouse himself. But the professor isn’t playing fair, and Sam is running out of time.
There’s only one way to put things right, and it will require a choice Sam swore he’d never make again. A choice that could end his dreams of getting his dad back forever.

Funny, fast, and full of excitement, I Swapped Dad for a Robot is a wild adventure about family, courage, and learning that sometimes the things we take for granted are the things we need most.


“When John Magee emerges from his writing room, dishes smash, kettles squeal, and sinks spill over, as local parents drop what they are doing, and turn their attention to whatever lies in the hand of one of our finest children's authors.” - Emmet McElhatton - Ulster Herald
