Better than Donald Trump's how to be a billionaire

I loved it. it is a great kids and middle school book. i recommend it. It was better than any book Donald Trump wrote.

Great for the whole family!

The story and the narrator kept all of us (ages 4, 8, 10, and adult) totally enthralled. So many wonderful themes of adaptation, community and connection, and sacrifice told in an engaging way. Can't wait to listen to the sequel!

My 7 year old loves both books in this series.

Great book. My 7 year old loves both of the books in this series. Highly recommended.

a great tale of live, tolerance, and sacrifice

this is one of my students Battle of the Books. loved every moment of this story. the performance was real, and made me feel like I was Roz!

My grandson loved this book!

My grandson, 5 years old, loved this book. He followed the story intently, with a dreamy look in his eyes as Ros’s adventures unfolded. The story was a perfect length, and we listened when traveling to and from school, and when I had chores and He couldn’t participate in. It was exactly what I was looking for when I browsed the Children’s books.

amazing

IT IS THE BEST BOOK IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!!! it has a sad end but it is AMAZING!!!😀😀😀

Absolutely amasing

This story was my favorite book, and getting to listen to it with the additional sounds and music made it ten times better. Getting to experience the full emotion of the setting and actions gave a full new perspective, which I quite enjoyed.

Great Introductory Story for Younger Readers

I read this story with my three and half year old son. It was a story that was entertaining and he loved it very much. This story was full of a lot of great details and a perfect introduction for him to audiobook. He loved that the robot was lovable and caring. He is excited for the next installment.

A fun story for kids, with lessons

This was a fun, adventurous, and imaginative story that Peter Brown has written. There are lessons of kindness and getting along, lessons on how not to judge people (animals) who are different than you, and how to work together in emergencies.
It tells a tale of a shipwreck of a boat carrying human-shaped robots, into an island where only animals live. Only one survives - Roz - and how she learns to adapt, to converse, and finally how to care for them, a egg and hatchling gosling who sees the robot as his Mama.
It's a tender story with some suspenseful and even sad elements, but it ends with a message of hope.
Kate Stwater does an excellent job of narrating the robot and various animals. T thoroughly enjoyed the listen.
