The Wild Robot Escapes by: Peter Brown

The Wild Robot Escapes by Peter Brown—so that’s the sequel to The Wild Robot, continuing the story of Roz, the robot who learns to survive and even thrive in the natural world. In this second book, Roz is captured and taken away from the island, and the story explores her attempts to escape captivity and find her way back home, all while navigating new environments and forming new relationships.

It’s a story that balances adventure, emotion, and thought-provoking questions about nature, technology, and what it means to be “alive.” Peter Brown’s illustrations add a lot of charm and help bring Roz’s journey to life.
