The Wild Robot

Such a great book cant wait to start reading the other books in the series! My son loves it. And we just barely found out that it has a movie!

My 12 years old son liked it 👍

Une histoire prenante, émouvante, qui nous rappelle au combien l'amour et le respect sont les seules valeurs qui peut sauver notre monde. A mettre entre tout les mains d'enfants... et même d'adultes ! Ce livre ainsi que le film m'auront fait versé des larmes (je suis adultes !) Une fois commencé le Tome 1, on ne peut qu'enchainer sur le rester de la trilogie :)

One of the nicest stories I've read in a while. My class of year 3 children chose this from a list of 100 rec'd books for Year 3 and we're using it as a guided reading book. It's lovely. In terms of teacher stuff: • The language is rich and interesting but easy to read and decipher. • The chapters are short but full of information. There isn't a single chapter that has been anything close to filler. One of my TAs said the book would have been perfect for her son because he couldn't handle reading long books, but with the short chapters - some of less than a full page - he would have been able to handle this. • The way the author uses subtle hints to create a picture is so creative and lends itself really well to high level inference and figuring out context from words used. Most importantly though, as someone who has read the book to see if they'd enjoy it as a story -- it's such a gorgeous tale of belonging and fitting in that I couldn't put it down. I read the whole thing in about 2 hours and couldn't stop. Even the slow build start is interesting enough for my kiddos to want to devour it just like I did. A wonderful story and I'm so glad our random number generator picked this from our 100 list and then that my kids voted for it.

My son and I are reading it together. It sometimes makes me cry when I read it loud for him. You'd feel so attached to this robot if you're a guardian. Kids would love it feeling the connections between them.
