Lynn Johnston has a new series of children's books out.

NORTH BAY — For Better or For Worse cartoonist Lynn Johnston, formerly of North Bay, is excited about a new project she is working on. She retired from that popular comic strip in 2008.

Her new series of books is called Alottabotz, and is about robots. Johnston, who wrote and illustrated the new series of children's books, says it's written in rhyme.

The books are aimed at kids aged 3 to 5.

"Welcome to the robot world of Alottabotz! Follow the adventures of Timothy Bot and his family as they settle into a new town>" says her website.

"Everyone loves robots, especially Lynn! Just for the heck of it, Lynn has written and illustrated a new series of children's books. The stories revolve around Timothy Bot—a robot boy who has just moved to a new town. Charming characters, sweet gestures, funny faces, interesting inventions, vibrant colours and spaceships galore! This timeless series is sure to delight your favourite youngster and those who are young-at-heart!"
