little bit disjointed and all over the place, but it was a quick and sweet read.I don t believe I ve ever said this in a review of a book before, but I think a lovely video game for kids can be made

the Data from Star Trek trap Their sole purpose in any narrative is to explain what it is to be human You see this all the time in pop culture, so it stands to reason you d see it a bit in children s

it I was expecting this to be one of my favorite reads of the year, but instead, I just found it strange a weird, disconcerting read You see, the author employs this folksy, gather round kiddies and I

still thought it was powerful This book will spark lots of great conversations with kids about kindness, community, and what it means to be alive.Update Read the finished book and declare it even better with the illustrations, of courseI don t read a lot of books about robots or about the wilderness, but it s hard to imagine that the two overlap very regularly The odd concept and fantastic artwork is what had me picking up children s book author Peter Brown s first novel, but the beauty of the story full of loss, love, and humor is what stuck with me long after I put it down Like most of the very best middle grade books, The Wild Robot can connect with adults just as easily as children Trisha Brownfrom The Best Books We Rea I don t read a lot of books about robots or about the

writing style, which is almost so simple to fit only a really short juvenile book, and the length, which is MG For over 70% of the book nothing that is not straight forward is happening yes, she befriends the animals, build fire etc, but nothing really interesting to hold a smart reader is there In addition, the reader referred by I did not like this book at all Except the premise of a robot in the wild it did not make much sense I ll expand on...Be prepared to cry I loved every minute of this book It was creative and heartwarming and as realistic as you can get considering it s about a robot surviving in the wilderness Also, there better be a sequel in the works or else someone is getting a nasty letter.
