Genre: Adventure
Age Recommendation: Grade 3-6
When a large cargo ship carrying robots sinks during a hurricane, some crates containing robots wash ashore on a small island. All but one of the robots is broken into pieces and when this robot gets powered up, the island's animals quickly label her as a monster. Over time, the robot, Roz, becomes a mother to an orphaned goose and a friend to the island's animals. When the RECO robots come to retrieve all of the robot parts, it isn't without a fight. This is an exciting story that would make a great read-aloud. Also check out the sequel, The Wild Robot Escapes.
I am a book loving elementary school teacher librarian. This blog reflects my personal opinions about the books I have read and is intended to be used by students and teachers who are looking for a book recommendation.
