S.P. 3 is a robot created by Clever Camel in the town of Sweet Pickles. She unloads it and leaves it with several friends with insturctions not to touch it but one does.
Thousands of cookies later and the robot picking up everything including Clever Camel's friends make this a fun short story about what can go wrong without proper instructions on how to run a machine. The children loved this book and asked for it often as they laughed at the misunderstanding between the robot and the instructions that turned into funny situations.
