Written by Isaac Asimov
A short story in the Robot Stories Of Isaac Asimov series
Cover Notes
The first robot story of the modern era. A Susan Calvin story.
This first story in the collection is basically about the technophobia that surrounds robots, and how it is misplaced. This is not such a strange place to start, when you see that almost every science fiction story to feature a robot up until publication of this one was of the "Robot turns against creator" genre.
Robbie was a mute robot, a nursemaid for a girl called Gloria Weston. Her mother was not convinced that robots were safe, and she decided that they had to take the robot back. Her view changed when Robbie saved Gloria's life in the U.S. Robots' factory
