Eleven year old Olly has a very special delivery - a 3D printing
machine, stamped with PROPERTY OF M.O.D and BRITISH SPACE AGENCY.
WARNING. DO NOT TAMPER, which has magical powers...
It has a name, it speaks, and it can print ANYTHING Olly asks it
to - the coolest new toy, a room full of chocolate cake - but what
Olly really wants is... his dad.

Eleven year old Olly has a very special delivery - a 3D printing
machine, stamped with PROPERTY OF M.O.D and BRITISH SPACE AGENCY.
WARNING. DO NOT TAMPER, which has magical powers... It has a name,
it speaks, and it can print ANYTHING Olly asks it to - a never-ending
supply of sweets, a swimming pool in the shed - but what
Olly really wants is... his dad, who has separated from his mum and
moved out of the family home. Cue the creation of Dad-Bot - he
looks just like Dad (on a good day) but is totally chaotic - and
his antics tip Olly and co into a heart-racing and heart-warming
adventure!
