Because the robot observes the animals and tries to learn from them to survive, there's information about animal behavior such as camouflage, although this information's mixed with fiction in which the animals are occasionally anthropomorphized.

Thank you – for sharing your time & talent & for the priceless time you allowed my son & I to have because of your story. He loved the book, and wanted me to ask what your plans were for “The Wild Robot 2”, since Roz’s story is clearly ongoing.I find this book interesting when she learned to speak animal language. I can't wait to read the second book "The Wild Robot Escapes" ! I requested it on the libary........ :) this is a wonderful work, thank you… that said I had to promise her that there was another book coming where she would learn of the robot’s fate and that of her family to stem the tide of tears.

Peter, OMG, my wife , daughter and I read this out loud at night w/ the dog and we LOVE IT !! We’re reading the series for the 2nd time and would LOVE to buy The Wild Robot Tshirt(s) – the illustrations are awesome! How do we buy them?This is a brilliant resource that will really challenge your class.

Robots can take almost any shape and so I considered different designs and capabilities and purposes for Roz. She had to be strong and intelligent, but not too strong and not too intelligent. If readers were ever going to relate to a robot she would have to be vulnerable, not invincible. And it might help if she were humanoid—that is, if she had arms and legs and a head—so readers could imagine themselves in her shoes. Most important, she had to be able to learn. I really like your Wild Robot books. I was hoping for a fourth book. I would name it the Wild Robot Finds Its Home. When the movie comes out, if you make one, I had mixed feelings when the ARCs arrived. It was exciting to see The Wild Robot in physical form, but I knew the finished book would be very different. Oh well. My publisher sent out the ARCs and responses started rolling in. The Wild Robot received its first official review in November 2015, two months before I finished working on it. Miraculously, it was a starred review. What do you think of the violence in The Wild Robot? Is it disturbing to see animals shot and robots dismembered? Do you think it's important in a survival story to show the dangers of the wild?
