What is Robomum about?

James's mum is a computer whizz, designing systems that launch space missions. However, she's not great at everyday mum tasks, often forgetting James's lunch money and permission slips. To help, she creates Robomum—a robot that cooks, cleans, and helps with homework. Robomum seems perfect, but when James falls ill, he realises that no machine can replace the warmth and care of his real mum.
