Maya and the Robot by Eve L. Ewing

4.0

3.5 A shy STEAM-focused girl has a rough year when she is put in a different class from her friends and has trouble speaking up against her strict teacher and a one-dimensional bully. Things begin to look up when she finds a robot in her neighbor's bric-a-brac store and gets it working, teaching it new languages and also developing a friendship.
