Dystopia told from the point of view of a robot. Initially the robot is a simple one caring for and protecting a child, and the dystopia is first presented in the description of the need for protection on the walk to school and in the school, which is a fortress and is as concerned with protecting the child as teaching her. Then the robots are given the ability to feel pain and humans are given enhanced powers previously limited to the robots. Little actually changes and the same dystopia remains.
