""Our Robot." The author gifts her to us. This story is about being kind and living life to the fullest. Staying true and good through the hate. The illustrations were beautiful and straightforward and brought so many feelings in with the words.
We get to watch Roz and Brightbill learn and grow together. Roz the outsider win the crowd. It is a good example of child-like wonder with mountains of wisdom throughout. "
