Well, I had stopped reading it after 8 pages, then
picked it up again and stayed up very late last night finishing "Runaway Robot", by Lester Del Rey. Very good book about a 16 year old boy named Paul and his robot, Rex, whom his father had purchased when Paul was three years old while he was Governer of a city on Ganymede, 3rd of the 4 Galelian moons of Jupiter.
The family is going back to Earth..but Paul's robot, Rex, would cost too much to ship to there. It's the story of how Paul and Rex run away in order to be able to stay together.
Very good book! Now I'll have to get another book out of my collection. It feels good to be reading again!
