The first thing that the robot saw was the otters. The robot said : hello I am Rozzum, unit 7134 . but you may call me Roz. Otters got scared and ran away. Roz tried to make friends with the other animals, but no luck. one day she decided to climb a mountain. Heavy rain came down, and she fell into a river. while she was sliding down, she accidentally destroyed a goose nest. There was one egg left. Roz decided to care for the egg , she made a little nest for the egg and put it on the shoulders. when animals saw that, they change their minds about Roz. they saw that she was a nice robot. in the couple of days the egg hatched. Beavers help Roz build a safe nest for her and her gosling. after that the gosling needed food, so Roz came up with the any idea to make a garden. She got lots of advices from other geese on how to take care of gosling . she named him Brightbill. Brightbill grew up and made lots of friends. His best friend was chitchat, the squirrel. summer came and made everyone happy. It was nice and sunny. Brightbill was practicing his swimming and flying, then days were getting shorter. The air was getting colder. That meant that the flock had to fly south. winter came. It was very cold. Ruz kept herself busy while waiting for Brightbill to come back, by helping the animals build homes. she also was making fires to keep everyone warm. two months passed by and it was spring. ice and snow started to melt and that meant that Brightbill was coming home. one afternoon while Roz was by the pond,she saw a Brightbills bills flock. She was happy to see him. then he went on her shoulder. He told Roz all about his journey. He told her that they stopped at a farm because it started to snow early. He saw robots on the farm working for humans, one got so upset that he killed one of their own. they had to escape they didn’t know where to go, so they just flew south. They also saw factories building more robots. eventually they made it. They made lots of friends with other flocks, and time went by so fast, and it was time to go home. Brightbill said:” I’m so happy to be home mom “. later that night, Roz and all of the animals had a party. they were having so much fun that they didn’t see the ship, but the ship saw them. in the morning Roz and Brightbill took a walk to their favorite spot to watch the sunrise. What they saw blew their minds. It was a spaceship with three scary looking robots, they came to take Roz and all the other robot parts. Brightbill and Roz alerted the animals and the hunt began . the animals tried their best to defend Roz, but they only the only killed two robots. the last robot, crushed into Raz. She only had a body in the head. The last robot got killed by a rifle. The animals came to Roz. She said : “if I stay here they, will send more robots” Brightbill said :” I love you mom” . Roz said :”I love you too my son”. The animals put Roz in the ship the door shut, and the spaceship took off. Roz thought to her self that she will be back soon. My favorite part was when Rossius decided to take care of the gosling.

Lily's Mountain

This book was so good! I really felt for Lily every time she faced a challenge and I liked her sister, but only at certain times. She could be really cool, but she could also be really mean to Lily. She agreed to go climb Denali with Lily, and that showed that she cares for her and loves her very much

I liked this book because it was relatable. It was relatable because David (the main character in the book) gets nosy questions about his family like I sometimes do. I also loved the ending and the plot twists.

This book was amazing to read. I absolutely loved this book because of how the author put so much detail into this tragic event in history. She also added a bit of fiction to make the reader really enjoy this book. It really felt like you were there experiencing the pain too. I strongly recommend this book.

This book was really well written because it made me feel sad for the characters/events. There was also some plot twists which I like, the ending especially surprised me. I also enjoyed how the fantasy story that one of the characters told was intertwined with the realistic fiction. This was a great book, and I would like to read some more of Lindsay Eager’s books.

by Laura Hillenbrand

book cover


The book Unbroken is an amazing story about Louie Zamperini who survived a plane crash, survived 47 days in the sea with no food or water, and was held a prisoner of war for two years. While Louie was a POW during World War 2 he survived many near death experiences in the many prisons and camps he was in. After returning home he married a woman named Cynthia and had a baby named Cissy. He couldn't control himself and often had dreams that reminded him of the war. His wife managed to get him to a church and his whole life changed. Louie Zamperini lived until 97 years old. I would recommend this book because it is an unbelievable true story that kept me on the edge of my seat wanting to read more about his life.
