If you’re looking to expand your classroom library, it’s never a bad idea to go with a beloved favorite that now doubles as the newest DreamWorks movie! In fact, you can get The Wild Robot by Peter Brown on Amazon for $6.99 per paperback copy.
If you’ve never heard of The Wild Robot before, it’s summed up pretty well in this description:
“This #1 New York Times bestselling illustrated middle grade novel from a Caldecott Honor winner tells an extraordinary story full of action and thought-provoking questions as a robot learns to survive—and live—in the wilderness.”
What teachers are saying
“This book gently incorporated the blending of nature and advancing technology,” one reviewer noted. “Thoughtful students will love it. I recommend this book.”
Another teacher used their review to fondly describe the magical experience the whole class shared after reading The Wild Robot together:
“To see the kids in my class connect to the characters/story in such a profound way and begin cultivating a love of reading through this book, has been truly magical to watch! Last, the classroom discussions became elevated by their critical thinking, insightful commentary, analysis of the text, and inquisitions. It’s safe to say, we fell in love with this book series & I would highly recommend it for young readers :)”
