Do you have ALL of Zapped?
If I recall correctly there are parts to the story that are on Stardust that aren't available elsewhere, in the form of a couple of shorts?
That would likely be the best place to grab anything of his that was later work.
Also, here is his page from Sapphire's:

There might be some things there you're missing.

Thank u I will look i want to
Thank u I will look i want to try to make this as good as I can so she can get a feel of who he was as she gets older and I thought my daughter would love it too as it is a part of him she didn't know

Just be careful of age appropriateness
Bob was not opposed to including adult content in his stories, as you'll know from Zapped :)

Bob Arnold material
There is "Before my Time", "Zapped", "Born to Race" and "Fresh Start 2" (with Julie O and Amelia R)
I have them on my Kindle but probably that doesn't help although Fresh Start 2 is on StardustR.US and Before my Time on storysite. It is well to check for suitability but I remember "Before my Time" as very warm-hearted story that anyone would enjoy

Story about Jen Stevens from Zapped
In the homepage of the Crystal Hall (Whateley Stories site) there is a Memorial of sorts from Diane Castle, with the heartfelt agreement from the rest of the authors of the "Canon Cabal" (there is no such thing as a Canon Cabal) called Adios Jen Stevens, by Diane Castle.
Also, Julie O published a lot of stories edited by him in her Julieverse, with participation of his character Jen Stevens from Zapped. Her stories can also be found in FictionMania and StorySite.

As I read his niece's loving words ,I see how blessed he was and never even knew it,the greatest gift any of us can get is acceptance of who we truly are by those we care about most .He treasured your love for him and looked forward to your visits ,I recall one time we were chatting and you were arriving soon ,you could feel the happiness in his mood and had to put everything away.He wished he could have shared as I asked him once if you did know but he couldn't risk losing you love and respect .You've given him a great gift and i sincerely hope you realize just how much it would have meant to him.We never know how others will react ,thats why our community exists and why so many find solace here and ones like Bob gave so much of themselves for that acceptance in it,You truly are a remarkable young lady ,and as Bob looks down on us ,I think he'd be happy to know how truly blessed and loved he was.What a beautiful legacy to build for this great man.Wish there were more like you in our world.

Indigo Sky for Bob Arnold
Here's a tribute I wrote for Bob using Donna Lamb's characters from Blue Moon and Green Sun. https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/fiction/29183/indigo-sky-bob-...
And of course, don't forget Stardust, over at http://StardustR.us , Bob's own website where nearly all of his own stories are archived.

A note here:
The character of Arnie Roberts in Donna Lamb's Blue Moon and Green Sun stories is based on Bob.
