The Wild Robot: Volume 1

Product Information

We read The Wild Robot in class and it sounds like all those years paid off. We were really intrigued by this book. We are planning to buy and read the sequel. We liked all the action?? We all loved the book and thought it was awesome. The Illustrations were really nice. It was very emotional and this book was epic! We really like it. I spent a year mapping all the possible directions for the story. There was so much to consider! How might a robot become wild? Do robots have anything in common with wildlife? What kinds of lessons could Roz learn from a tree, or a storm, or an opossum? And why is Roz on an island in the first place? This is a brilliant resource that your children can use throughout the chapter to make notes. This ensures children are engaged and actively participating and reflecting on the story.

She is still learning to be kind all the time, to be helpful, to sit still when she needs to, to behave quietly when at church.Now there are several years of students who are waiting for the 3rd book & for the movie. Please let me know if you know the release date for the 3rd book. Also, I read that Dreamworks bought the movie rights, but have they started making the movie yet?

Roz is a futuristic robot that washes ashore on a deserted island. From there, a tale of survival and discovery begins. Eventually, I switched from Scrivener to MS Word so my editor could easily comment on the manuscriptJust finished reading this book with my 7 year old daughter and she was a beautiful crying mess afterwards, the story really touched her. she was also equally concerned by peril and sacrifices that the characters made (trying not to give anything away). The robot named Roz discovers she is on an island free of humans. She watches and observes the animals until she learns their language. The animals think she is a monster and treat Roz as an outcast. After a while, Roz begins making friends by helping the animals with things they need. There are ways to survive adversity, and it helps to observe animals who've adapted to the environment. When others are against you, you can change their hearts by being kind and helpful. We can all use our various strengths to help one another. My name is Sebastian and I am eight years old. I love playing sports like soccer and tennis. I also like reading books. I love both of your Wild Robot books because of the way you described Roz’s feelings and actions. My favorite part of the book The Wild Robot was when Brightbill hatched and called Roz “mama”. In the second book my favorite part was when Roz reunited with her animal friends on the island. I even recommended the books to my class to read. I am doing a book report for my school and I have a few questions for you.

My children and I have loved the Roz books. They are some of our favorite books! We are requesting that you write a third book, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE.It took eight years, but I finally found an answer to the question that led me down this path. What would an intelligent robot do in the wilderness? She’d make the wilderness her home. I had mixed feelings when the ARCs arrived. It was exciting to see The Wild Robot in physical form, but I knew the finished book would be very different. Oh well. My publisher sent out the ARCs and responses started rolling in. The Wild Robot received its first official review in November 2015, two months before I finished working on it. Miraculously, it was a starred review. The Wild Robot is the story of Rozzum unit 7134, a robot who wakes up for the very first time to find that she’s alone on a remote, wild island. Roz doesn’t know how she got there, or where she came from: she only knows that she wants to stay alive. And by robotically studying her environment she learns everything she needs to know. She learns how to move through the wilderness, how to avoid danger, she even learns how to communicate with the animals. But the most important lesson Roz learns is that kindness can be a survival skill. And she uses kindness to develop friends and a family and a peaceful life for herself. Until her mysterious past catches up with her. So, I wrote my first children’s novel. It wasn’t a graceful process, but I survived the stress and the solitude and the crippling self-doubt, and now my novel has entered the world. It’s called The Wild Robot. If you have a few minutes I’d like to tell you about it. Robots can take almost any shape and so I considered different designs and capabilities and purposes for Roz. She had to be strong and intelligent, but not too strong and not too intelligent. If readers were ever going to relate to a robot she would have to be vulnerable, not invincible. And it might help if she were humanoid—that is, if she had arms and legs and a head—so readers could imagine themselves in her shoes. Most important, she had to be able to learn.

The wilderness was taking a toll on poor Roz. So she felt something like relief when she spotted the quiet hole in the side of the mountain. It looked like a safe place for a robot. She stomped across the hillside and up to the cave, but never stopped to wonder what might be lurking within. Wall-E meets Hatchet in this #1 New York Times bestselling illustrated middle grade novel from Caldecott Honor winner Peter Brown I spent over a year cobbling together my first draft of The Wild Robot. It was rough. Very rough. But Little, Brown & Company liked it enough to sign it up and in July of 2014 it became official: my robot nature story would be published! There was just one problem…I didn’t know how to finish it.

Peter, OMG, my wife , daughter and I read this out loud at night w/ the dog and we LOVE IT !! We’re reading the series for the 2nd time and would LOVE to buy The Wild Robot Tshirt(s) – the illustrations are awesome! How do we buy them? I really like the wild robot I’m looking forward to reading the second book. Me and my family have Lyme disease and that book has helped us along the way with my reading. The Wild Robot are my favourite books I’ve ever read (I’m 9!). And I’d like to read more stories about Roz and Brightbill. My dad loved it too! I loved imagining scenes of nature living in surprising places. And that got me thinking about scenes of unnatural things living in surprising places, and I made a few sketches like this- Roz stumbled on until she found a patch of ground that was flat and open and carpeted with pine needles. It seemed like a safe place, and safety was all the robot really wanted, so she stood there, motionless, all perfect lines and angles set against the irregular shapes of the wilderness.
