Good sequel

I liked this one better than the first one, maybe because I didn't have a movie to compare it to.

I found the story interesting in that Roz was able to survive in a whole new way, and was able to help people and continue to make new friends and the like. While the story is somewhat predictable, though it might not be if this is your first introduction to our wild robot, but fun just the same.

The audiobook read by Kathleen McInerney was well done. I often find lady narrators annoying, but McInerey was delightful to listen to. I actually shed a couple tears, after just a few weeks ago thinking about how a book had never made me cry (though I cry at movies at lot).

Recommended, especially if you have young people to read it with.
