Overview

Buku, the magical robot, leads his friends on a fun, fast-paced adventure through different worlds where they discover how bullying and prejudice hurt others-and the power of empathy, kindness, and fairness. Malena, Oli, and Samu see a boy being bullied and begin to wonder why people can be so unkind. Buku, the magical robot, knows they are upset and at once returns to help his friends.
