About the authors

Peter Brown

Peter Brown

Peter has always loved telling stories. Growing up in New Jersey, he told stories by drawing whimsical characters and scenes from his imagination. As a teenager, he fell in love with writing and began telling his tales with words. While studying illustration at Art Center College of Design, Peter’s love of both words and pictures led him to take several courses on children’s books, and before long he knew he’d found his calling.

After graduating from Art Center Peter moved to New York City to be closer to the publishing industry. He was working on animated TV shows when he signed a book deal to write and illustrate his first picture book, Flight of the Dodo. Peter quickly signed up his second and third books, and his career as an author and illustrator of children’s books was under way.

Since then Peter has written and illustrated many books for children and earned numerous honors, including a Caldecott Honor, a Horn Book Award, two E.B. White Awards, two E.B. White Honors, a Children’s Choice Award for Illustrator of the Year, two Irma Black Honors, a Golden Kite Award, a New York Times Best Illustrated Book Award and multiple New York Times bestsellers.

Peter lives in Maine with his wife, Susan, and their dog, Pam.

Review from a 10 year old boy: “I love the book it is super fun to read and the characters are very interesting. It is a great book for me and I think it’s worth reading if you’re interested in futuristic and science-fiction books.”

My son and I, he's 9 was 8 when we started with the first book in the series, love this story. Roz is an interesting character who you really just fall in love with even though she's just a robot. It is a nice.story about understanding our environment and how we need to take care of things and watch what we do because it can indeed affect those around us. We had a good time reading this series and recommend it for anyone who is looking for a cutesy fun story with a tad of suspense built in. Nothing to terrible but it leaves you wanting to read more.

I teach 4th grade and this is a book that I have added to my rotation in the last few years. This is a great book series in general. It covers some really important topics, like fitting in, bullying, etc, but in a softer way. It provides for great discussions with my older students. I read the first book and then this one. We are saving the 3rd book for later in the kids and the kids are really looking forward to it. Plus I love that's it's written in 2nd person. Not many books do that anymore.

My 10 year old loved this book. He can’t wait for the movie now! He hates reading too, so this is the first book he read to the end.

After reading The Wild Robot with my grandson, we wanted to know what happened to Roz. This book answered that question and many more. when Roz is sent to work on a farm, she makes new friends but still wants to go home. From there the adventure begins. I’m not sure where the third book will take Roz, but I’m about to find out!

I read the first book in the series aloud to my 4th grade class. I bought the book so my students could choose to read it on their own. I wanted to read it first. I loved how it built off the first book, but it had a lot of plot changes I wasn't expecting. I think those who loved the first book will also love this one!

This is book 2 in the series. My kids and I are all reading and enjoying them. This one was no exception. This is a great series with short chapters so even kids who don't love reading can get into it and feel like they've accomplished something big.
