Can a robot survive in the wilderness?
Disney's Wall-E meets Gary Paulsen's Hatchet in this illustrated middle grade novel from Caldecott Honor winner Peter Brown. The Wild Robot is a heartwarming and action-packed tale about what happens when nature and technology collide.
"An uplifting story about an unexpected visitor whose arrival disrupts the animal inhabitants of a rocky island, has a contemporary twist. Brown wisely eschews a happy ending in favor of an open-ended one that supports the tone of a story that's simultaneously unsentimental and saturated with feeling." -- Publishers Weekly
