Bookroo's summary

Hank faces a daunting challenge: build a robot in just two days for his school's competition. With no prior experience, he enlists the help of Jaden, a robot expert. Together with friends Frankie and Ashley, they create Stanley, a robot with potential. But on competition day, Stanley malfunctions, causing chaos. Can Hank and his team regain control before it's too late? The stakes are high, and it's not just about winning a trophy anymore—it's about stopping a runaway robot. Will Hank's quick thinking and teamwork save the day?

From the publisher

Hank, the star of the bestselling easy-to-read series, is back! This time, he has to learn the nuts and bolts of making a robot–and making a friend! Hank’s school is hosting its first-ever Build-a-Robot competition and Hank is ready to win. There’s just one problem: he completely forgot about the contest! While other kids have been working on their robots for a month, Hank has just two days to create an amazing robot that will wow the judges and win him the trophy. To make matters worse, there might be another problem, too. Hank has no idea how to build a robot! With help from Jaden, a robot expert at his school, Hank and his friends construct their robot, Stanley, just in time. But on the day of the competition, Stanley malfunctions! It will take Hank, Frankie, Ashley, and their new friend Jaden to get it back on track. Forget winning the trophy–Hank has to stop a robot on the loose!
