Aww, this was very sweet and also compelling? Like...Hatchet + Charlotte's Web + a robot? It was such a careful blend of ~nature red in claw and tooth~ but also a helpful community? I could still see it being upsetting for sensitive young readers but it's overall a sweet story. It's interesting portrayal of a disability!

Also I read the ebook version on my Kindle so I missed out on the color illustrations ,but even in b&w they were very cool. (As you would expect from Peter Brown.)
