RATTY FAMILY MOVIE SERIES - THE WILD ROBOT BOOK

We are so excited to continue our film series together!

Ratty believes kids are never too young or old for families to read chapter books aloud together. Even for toddlers, a great story encourages new vocabulary, focus, comprehension, and an introduction to narrative. For more advanced readers, group reading can facilitate discussions about deeper themes and ideas, as well as quality family time. It’s our greatest wish to foster a love of storytelling and prompt conversations across all ages and interests. We hope this series creates a FUN and communal experience for the community.

Our next book is The Wild Robot by Peter Brown, which was adapted into a newly released CGI animated blockbuster movie directed by Chris Sanders.

"Can a robot survive in the wilderness? When robot Roz opens her eyes for the first time, she discovers that she is all alone on a remote, wild island. She has no idea how she got there or what her purpose is--but she knows she needs to survive. After battling a violent storm and escaping a vicious bear attack, she realizes that her only hope for survival is to adapt to her surroundings and learn from the island's unwelcoming animal inhabitants."
