J.M. Cunningham, a writer who was a staff sergeant in the United States Air Force Reserves, has completed her new book, "The Robot Lesson": an illustrated fiction about Ten Carat, a robot who feels so proud of himself and the gold in him, as he learns not to treat others badly through a kind stranger.
Cunningham writes, "Ten Carat thinks he is the best robot in Robotica City! Although Ten Carat is shiny, he is mean and rude. Ten Carat boasts of his importance while pushing every other robot out of his way. But when Ten Carat runs completely out of power, a silver stranger helps him. Ten Carat learns that it is better to be kind than to be mean and to bully others. The stranger named Silver teaches Ten Carat kindness by helping him when no other robot would. This one act of kindness changes Robotica City forever."
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, J.M. Cunningham's new book is a fun tale that takes the children into a fictional city of robots where they will learn what good comes from being helpful, kind, and friendly to anyone.
Readers can purchase "The Robot Lesson" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, or Barnes & Noble.

In fact, the evidence might point to the...
