Description
TO CELEBRATE THE LAUNCH OF THE WILD ROBOT PROTECTS (THE WILD ROBOT 3) ON THE 26TH OF SEPTEMBER, WE ARE GIVING YOU THE CHANCE TO READ THE WILD ROBOT ESCAPES WITH 50 READ NOW COPIES.
Roz is no ordinary robot. After being washed up on the shore of a remote and wild island, she learned to adapt and make it her home, befriend its animal inhabitants and even adopt a small orphaned gosling, Brightbill.
But a new life is now beginning for Roz - she has been taken away, far away from her island, back to civilisation. Where she must pretend that she is a robot like any other - there to follow orders and to carry out tasks on the farm where she now works.
She knows she must never let anyone find out who she really is. And more than anything, she must find a way to escape, back to the island and her beloved Brightbill - a journey that will be fraught with danger and drama, and some very unexpected surprises...
The sequel to the No.1 New York Times bestselling THE WILD ROBOT, by award-winning author-illustrator Peter Brown
