Review from my little sister Laly (10).
An adorable, hilarious and engaging story of a docile, harmless robot becoming a wild robot.
There was once a cargo ship carrying crates with ROZZOM robots inside. Then a hurricane struck and destroyed all boxes from the boat except one that survived.
Later some playful otters found the box, opened it, and pressed the button to turn on the robot, Roz.
Now, Roz had to live in the wild all by herself. She encounters many not-so-pleasant adventures (bears, bugs, etc.) until she realizes she can survive by camouflage. Roz started to understand the language of the animals and then adopted a baby goose and slowly became friends with some animals.
Most of the setting was on a remote island full of wildlife. This book was adorable and funny. The chapters were concise for most of the book. Throughout the book, there are pictures.
Unlike some chapter books, this book was always exciting.
My favorite character is the idiotic Roz. When she didn’t understand common knowledge, it made me laugh. It was funny when Roz adopted the baby gosling, Brightbill.
To be honest, this is one of my favorite books.
As soon as I finished the book, I needed the second one!
