About this series
DJ Benson is a 12-year-old boy who lives on a farm in the Australian countryside. He loves all things scientific. In the new book The Runaway Robot: A DJ Benson Adventure, DJ’s family has just inherited a robot factory from Uncle Clive.
It turns out that Uncle Clive didn’t pass away, but faked his demise so he could retire from the city and live next door to the Benson’s farm. One day, DJ’s father asks the factory to design and build a robot to help back at the farm. But before the robot can be delivered, it is stolen! DJ turns to Uncle Clive, who suggests that the family order another robot. DJ asks Becky Martin, his best friend, to help him assemble the new robot, but the second one is stolen, too! DJ believes that Becky’s father, who owns the local computer store, has taken both robots. DJ confronts Mr. Martin, who denies the charge.
Nothing is certain in this rollicking adventure story. Is this a case of a Runaway Robot or will the robots be returned? Can DJ save the day?

- The Markwell Manor Mystery: A DJ Benson Adventure
DJ’s family has just inherited a mansion in Sydney courtesy of their relatively unknown and somewhat mysterious Uncle Clive. But moving from their country town to the lap of luxury proves to be easier said than done. Uncle Clive’s historic mansion already has other occupants—and these ghostly residents don’t want company! They aren’t the only ones who don’t want the Benson family in the mansion; a former employee wants to scare the Bensons away so he can use the building for his own purposes. Why are there ghosts in the manor? What is the criminal plotting? What really happened to Uncle Clive? Eleven-year-old DJ is the only one who can unravel the mystery of Markwell Manor in this spine-tingling adventure.
