What happens when you put a robot in the wild? At first glance, such an idea cannot end in anything interesting. However, it turns out that the survival instincts of animals and birds are close to the algorithms of robots. And in this case, a robot may well fit into the life of wild animals. Especially if this robot is a woman... Roz, who cannot feel, is programmed to improve herself. And this allows her to overcome the world's rejection of living beings, to win their love and compassion. Peter Brown's novel The Wild Robot is imbued with the dramatic experiences of a machine that not only became a mother to a little gosling, but also took under its protection all the animals of the island, neglecting its own safety.
