The Wild Robot: Volume 1

Can a robot survive in the wilderness? When Roz, a newly activated robot, opens her eyes for the first time, she finds herself completely alone on a remote, wild island. With no memory of how she arrived or what her purpose is, Roz faces the daunting task of survival. After enduring a fierce storm and narrowly escaping a bear attack, Roz realizes that to survive, she must adapt to the island's harsh environment and learn from the wary animals that inhabit it.

I absolutely loved this book! My 10 year old son had it assigned as summer reading. We would read it together using Discord and screen share. This story is very much human and makes you think about the relationship between computers and natural world. Animal and instincts and computer programming are very much similar to each other. As you find out in this book through a beautiful story of personal growth and the power of family.

We read this together as a family. And we all loved it, our son who is 14, our 10 year daughter, my wife and I included. Very entertaining, great story about the lessons of life. Love, hope, fear, loss and how we can overcome any obstacles with a little bit of help from friends and family.
