The Wild Robot is about a robot named Roz who wakes up on a wild, empty island after a shipwreck. She’s all alone and doesn’t know how to survive. At first, the animals on the island are scared of her because she’s not like them, but Roz tries really hard to learn how to live in the wild.
Roz finds a baby goose egg and decides to take care of the gosling when it hatches, even though she’s not sure how! She names him Brightbill, and they become best friends. The other animals start to like Roz because she helps them, and she builds a cozy home with the beavers’ help.
Roz learns how to be part of the island family, even though she’s a robot. But then, some other robots come looking for her, and she has to make a tough choice to keep her animal friends safe. It’s a story about friendship, bravery, and figuring out where you belong—even if you’re different.
