The Wild Robot

The Wild Robot

Can a robot survive in the wilderness?

When robot Roz opens her eyes for the first time, she discovers that she is alone on a remote, wild island. She has no idea how she got there or what her purpose is--but she knows she needs to survive. After battling a fierce storm and escaping a vicious bear attack, she realizes that her only hope for survival is to adapt to her surroundings and learn from the island's unwelcoming animal inhabitants.

As Roz slowly befriends the animals, the island starts to feel like home--until, one day, the robot's mysterious past comes back to haunt her.

From bestselling and award-winning author and illustrator Peter Brown comes a heartwarming and action-packed novel about what happens when nature and technology collide.

QR Codes

The QR Code provided is linked to my book trailer that I created for the book, The Wild Robot.

I have always had a QR Code reader on my phone, but I have only created them a couple of times.  However, when I was working on this assignment I found that I really liked the idea of using QR Codes.  The possibilities for using QR Codes are endless and provide many options for librarians.  I like the idea of having a book display or bulletin board that have QR codes linked to book trailers.  Not only would students be able to read the synopsis of the book, but they can also see the book trailer.  This will help engage reluctant readers.  As a librarian, I think that I could use the QR codes as a game or activity for students to interact with while they are within the library.  QR Codes could also be used to display the instruction videos for a Makerspace lab within the library.  Students could come to the library with their devices or the library devices could be used by the students to participate with these activities.
