Description
THE UNFORGETTABLE NEW ADDITION TO THE NO.1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING THE WILD ROBOT SERIES IS COMING 26 SEPTEMBER 2023.
Roz the robot has made an unlikely home for herself on an idyllic island dense with forests, wildflowers and friendly animal inhabitants - including her own young son Brightbill the gosling.
Life on the island is perfect, until a dying seal washes ashore and warns of dangerous, cloudy waters that are flowing toward the island, bringing new dangers for the animals.
Forced inland they will have to fight over fewer resources - and Roz realizes that she must march into the waves and undertake an incredible undersea journey to find a way to protect her beloved island and all who live on it ...
From bestselling author and illustrator Peter Brown comes a heartwarming and action-packed third installation exploring what happens when nature and technology collide.

The Wild Robot and its sequel The Wild Robot Escapes were both New York Times bestsellers.

Featured Reviews
My nephew recommended the first book in this series to me and I loved it, and the sequel, Brown manages to get some very serious (and at times scary) messages over in the book without them becoming overwhelming or didactic.
I also very much love the illustrations throughout the book.
I hope that we do hear more from Roz in the future
