The Wild Robot on the Island by Peter Brown
Roz is not where she’s supposed to be.
You see, the robot wasn’t designed to live in the wilderness. But when she washes up on an island, she must learn from the animal inhabitants and adapt to her new, natural surroundings, and before long, the island begins to feel like home.
