When robot Roz opens her eyes for the first time, she discovers that she is alone on a remote, wild island. She has no idea how she got there or what her purpose is--but she knows she needs to survive. After battling a fierce storm and escaping a vicious bear attack, she realizes that her only hope for survival is to adapt to her surroundings and learn from the island's unwelcoming animal inhabitants.
As Roz slowly befriends the animals, the island starts to feel like home--until, one day, the robot's mysterious past comes back to haunt her.

A wonderful, simple story that explains all kinds of complex issues like love, family, friendship, kindness, depression, acceptance, conflict resolution & even global warming.
Particularly loved the music in the first 30/last 30 mins of the audio. The narrator did a fantastic job with the voices, especially notable for her deepening and fleshing out Brightbill's voice as he got older. Like that Brown didn't go for the nearly-tied-up ending. Pure, sweet, feel good loveliness. Would like to see the pictures in the actual book, especially as that's what Brown's known for.
Cute, easy read. Will be a great addition to my classroom library and a fun read aloud with my students.
