My Robot’s Gone Wild
Book Review
This is a funny adventure where everyone is disguised as something else!
I enjoyed reading this book. I liked how the Grandma was an inventor, because it shows that anyone can be an inventor!
There are people called rustlers who take highland cows. In this story they are called “Beasties”.
Robin the robot, the main characters Jake and Jess, and their friends are trying to stop them.
Grandma and Granny Anderson are in a submarine that is disguised as a water dragon and are keeping watch in the lake.
This is a funny adventure where everyone is disguised as something else!
I did enjoy it, but because I am now aged 8 I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I had read it when I was a couple of years younger.
About the Book
This is the fourth title in the funny series of books by Dave Cousins about a brother and sister’s adventures with their chaos-causing robot babysitter.
It does not matter if you have not already read the other books which are also illustrated in black and white by Catalina Echeverri
Jake and Jess are on their way to Scotland to visit their robot Robin, who’s been hiding out near a remote loch with Grandma – his creator.
Robin now spends most of his time camouflaged in bushes and can light a fire with a click of his fingers – he’s gone worryingly wild!
However, when Grandma ropes the trio into a plan to catch a local gang of thieves in the act, it looks like Robin’s new skills might just save the day…
