The Wild Robot Escapes (The Wild Robot 2)

The author Peter Brown makes the characters come alive with his convincing, descriptive storytelling. The story is very exciting from start to finish - it only took me a few days to read it because I couldn’t put it down. * National Geographic Kids *Brilliantly drawn and surprisingly touching, this merges the mechanical with the human beautifully. * Angels and Urchins *Roz the robot might not have any emotions, but the story is full of them with the children and animals she meets… a heartfelt story, and with short chapters it’s an easy read! * Creative Steps *The Wild Robot Escapes packs in plenty of heart. It’s a deceptively simple story, one whose goal is mapped out as early as possible, ensuring a hook-laden narrative from beginning to end. Its darkness may be persevering, but you find yourself immersed in Roz’s mentality, her simple way of thinking and the stripped down storytelling complementing each other. Roz’s journey is fraught with danger at every turn, but it’s well worth every turn of the page. * Starburst Magazine *
