The end of this book was a lot sadder than I was expecting (but there’s a sequel and this is definitely worth the read!) and I’m still a bit sniffly over a robot and her goose son. 

The relationship Roz cultivates with the island creatures and her son was so heartwarming to read about. They solved many problems with the power of friendship which is one of my favorite things, and even more so because Roz starts off not really knowing how to make friends. Between that and Roz’s accidental child acquisition, this book was many of my favorite things rolled in to one. 

And a special treat of the audiobook is that at the beginning and end there is fun sound effects along with the audio narrator’s voice that gave a very unique feel to the listening experience.
