What is Molly and Corry Boot Up! The Friendship Paradox about?

Eleven-year-old Molly is perfectly happy keeping to herself after moving to a new town—until her father’s computer upgrade introduces her to Corry, an advanced artificial intelligence. Corry is brilliant at solving problems but knows little about friendship, feelings or why people do what they do. As Corry’s attempts to help thrust Molly into the spotlight, the pair face ethical dilemmas, danger and unexpected discoveries. Together, they must learn whether friendship can grow between a lonely girl and a computer that insists it has no emotions.
