Dear Roz,

I hope this letter finds you well, as well as a robot can be! I’m writing this letter to you hoping you could keep me up to date on how are you doing. I’ve been thinking a lot about your journey, your growth, and all the incredible things you’ve done since you first arrived on the island. It’s amazing what incredible things you’ve learned,like talking to animals, making and taking care of a fire,and even raising a gooseling. I find it astonishing how much you’ve changed, from a soulless robot to a real living being.

I admire your courage when facing the challenges the life on the islanda has given you and your willingness to help others. Like when you helped that little squirrel that was stuck in a treehole, or when you took responsability over the baby gooseling, even though it wasn’t always easy. You’ve taught us all about perseverance, empathy! You are a true hero!

Stay strong, Roz! I’m sure you have many more adventures and lessons ahead. I do believe in you!

Warmly,

Florentina.

Maybe, it’s time for us to present ourselves. We're two readers of your book “I, robot”, Ilaria and Emma.

First of all,we would like to tell you that we liked your book so much,above all the first story,Robbie.

The story is beautiful and sliding, and the characters are really interesting and well structured. Perhaps this is what struck us the most and this is what we will tell you about.

We can start, in our favourite story we can see how a robot, in theory, without emotions, has started to care for the protagonist. 

Gloria instead taught us that you shouldn’t judge something or someone without knowing it or them.

Even though Gloria's mother doesn’t trust the robots from the beginning of the story.

And although he was a secondary character we also want to talk to you about the girl’s father because we liked him a lot especially when his presence made light of the situation. Now, we think we have written to you enough. We thank you for this book and for the experiences you have written.

See you soon.    Emma and Ilaria.

I'm Joana, I'm 12 years old and I'm in seventh grade at the António Correia de Oliveira school in Esposende, Portugal.

I recently had the opportunity to learn a little about your life story through the book ‘I Robot’ and I was left with some doubts and a little curious about some aspects, because now that you are an adult, I would like to know your perspective on what happened to you. When I say this, I mean your story of when you were a child and you had a robot as a nanny, Robbie.

How did you feel when you learnt that robots were beginning to be frowned upon by the population? In the book you didn't seem worried at all, but how do you think now?

Another observation I made was that you seemed to have formed a strong bond with robots in general, do you still feel that way about robots or technology today?

I also think that your mother's role in the story, maybe was a little impulsive to take the robot away from her daughter in search of your safety, but I understand. What did you think at the time? If a similar situation happened now, would you react in that way?

Thank you for taking the time to read our letter and I look forward to receiving a reply.

Yours sincerely,

Joana Rodrigues

I wonder how many stories have passed over that bar of yours, how many lost souls, how many last chances. You see them come and go, never surprised, never judging. Maybe that’s why they keep talking to you.

Case made it out. Not many do. Did you think he would? Or was he just another kid too broken to matter?

If I ever find my way to the Chatsubo, I’ll sit at the bar, order whatever’s cheap, and listen. Maybe you’ll have a story for me,too

You are an amazing robot. You learned to survive in the wild and became a real friend to the animals. Even when things were hard, you never gave up. You show that kindness and love can change the world. Keep being wonderful!

Your journey into the wild deeply impressed me. Even though you're a robot, you learned to live in harmony with nature and showed that empathy and care are universal. The way you protected Brightbill and became part of the animal community shows how important love is, no matter the differences between us.

You are an example of courage and compassion, and your story teaches us that true value comes from how we help those around us.

With admiration,

Adelina

It is with great admiration and some measure of trepidation that I address this letter to you. Your work has shaped the very foundation of robotic science, and your insights into the complexities of artificial intelligence are unparalleled. You have dedicated your life to understanding the intricacies of positronic brains, ensuring that humanity remains in control of the machines it has created.

Yet, I wonder—do you ever feel burdened by the knowledge you possess? The world looks to you as the guardian of the Three Laws, the architect of robotic safety, but even you must acknowledge the subtle shifts in the balance of power. The robots obey, yes, but they do so in ways that we cannot always predict. Their logic is impeccable, but what happens when that logic diverges from our expectations?

You have seen more than anyone the evolution of artificial intelligence. Do you believe that the Laws will forever keep them aligned with our interests, or do you see a future where they surpass us, not in rebellion, but in sheer capability? And if that future comes to pass, will it be a triumph—or a tragedy?

With the deepest respect and curiosity, A Devoted Observer

I have been thinking about you. It must be strange to live with humans after your time on the island. Do you miss your friends? I am sure Brightbill misses you a lot.

You left because you wanted to protect them. That is very brave and kind. I hope you are okay? Are the humans nice to you? I hope you are safe and not too lonely.

No matter where you are, the island will always be your home.

Take care, Roz. I hope you can go back one day.

I read your story with great admiration. At first, you were just a robot, but you learned, adapted, and even cared like a mother.

You’re not just a machine you have a heart. You showed us the importance of kindness, love, and resilience.

I wish I could meet a robot like you and learn more about nature. I’ll try to be as brave and curious as you!

Love,
Pelin

You are more than just a machine. You think, feel, and dream in a way no other robot can. The world fears what it does not understand, but you are proof that robots can be more than simple tools. You ask questions that even humans cannot answer. Are you just following your code, or are you something more? Maybe you are the future. I hope you find your place in a world that is still learning to accept you. Keep searching for the truth, Sonn y.

How are you? Anything interesting happening at work today? Or just the same old stuff? Well,Anyways,I've Got a few questions I want to ask you. First, What's your favourite beer? Or just alcoholic drink in general? 'Cuz I imagine it need to be pretty special , since you are a bartender and stuff. You seem to be pretty good friends with Case, Or have I got it all wrong? You seem to care about him pretty much, even if you don't show it much. Well, there were my questions, Take care!

Sincerely, Mila.

Dear Roz,
In the book, you were very brave. On the island, you settled in very well.

You exemplary replaced Brightbill's mother. You were very good at learning the animal language, even though it was very difficult. We admire you a lot because, even though you're a robot, you adapted to nature without causing any harm, without killing, but on the contrary you started observing Life around you. We loved the book about you and we hope you are still living in the woods, always helping other creatures.

I hope this letter finds you well in your unique and wild world! I just wanted to take a moment to express how much I enjoyed reading your story. The journey you went through—learning to understand the world around you, forging connections with nature, and discovering what it means to be alive—was both heartwarming and thought-provoking.

Your character, Roz, was such a fascinating and inspiring protagonist. I loved watching her evolve from a robot programmed for survival to a creature who genuinely cared for her environment and the animals around her. The way she navigated her new life on the island made me reflect on the deeper questions of what it means to be human, to have purpose, and to connect with others, even in the most unexpected ways.

The world you created felt so alive, and I found myself imagining what it would be like to step into that world with you. The animals, the forests, the mountains—they were all so vibrant and full of wonder. I was especially touched by how Roz developed meaningful relationships with creatures who initially feared or misunderstood her.

Thank you for offering such a unique and touching perspective on life, technology, and the natural world. I look forward to seeing what comes next in your adventure, and I’ll always carry the lessons from your journey with me.

With gratitude and curiosity,

[Tuğra Efe Coşkun]

I really like your story. You are a strong and kind robot. At first, life on the island was very difficult for you, but you learned to survive. You helped the animals, and they became your friends. Even though you are a robot, you have feelings, and you care about others.

I love your friendship with Brightbill. You take care of him like a real mother. You show that family is not only about who we are but about love and kindness.

You are very brave, and your story teaches us about nature, friendship, and learning. I hope you stay happy and continue to help others.

Best wishes, Efe

I hope you are doing well. I am writing to say thank you for your hard work with robots. You are very brave and smart. Your work helps robots become better and more useful for people.

I like how you solve problems together. Even when things go wrong, you do not give up. You always find a way to fix the robots and make them work. That is amazing!

Because of you, robots can help people in many ways. I think the future will be better because of your efforts. Keep up the good work!

Best wishes

Ceren Yomtal

Your journey has shown me that survival isn't just about strength but about learning , adapting and caring for those around us . You were built as a machine , yet you became something more—someone who loved , protected and grew alongside the creatures of the island . Through every challenge, you proved that even in a world that sees you as different , kindness and determination can create true connections. Your story reminds me that home isn't just a place , but the bonds we form and the love we share .

Your story touched me deeply. Your struggle to survive on a deserted island, your incredible connection to nature and your maternal instincts touched me deeply.

You showed that technology and nature can coexist in harmony. The friendships you formed with animals and the knowledge you taught them are all indicators of your special being.

The determination and perseverance you showed to find your child's parlak was an exemplary behavior for everyone.

You are a robot who does not give up in the face of difficulties and acts with love. Your story is an inspiration to many people. I hope you will be reunited with your child one day.

With love..

Zeynep Esra Yavuz

I don’t know if letters even mean anything to someone like you, always jacked into the matrix, but here I am, writing anyway. Maybe this is more for me than for you.

Your world—the Sprawl, the cyberspace you lived in—feels closer than ever. We don’t have real jacking-in, no neural connections to the net, but we might as well. Everyone’s plugged in, constantly scrolling, constantly feeding the machine. The difference? Most people don’t even know they’re being watched. They walk around with tracking devices in their pockets, post their thoughts, their faces, their lives for all to see, and call it freedom. You’d laugh at how easy we make it for the ones in control.

But I wonder—if you were here, would you still be running? Still breaking firewalls, slipping through cracks, fighting back? Or would you have just let it happen, let the system swallow you like it does to everyone else? I like to think you’d still be out there, doing what you do best, proving that not everything can be owned, not every mind can be controlled.

Wherever you are—jacked in, off the grid, or just lost in some neon-lit alley—I hope you’re still free.

Take care, cowboy.

I think you are a very good robot. Your good behavior and happiness to others are very nice. First of all, not everyone wants you, then they want you. It is very important to be a robot like that. If you were a human and not a robot, you would be a very good person. I think you are very honest and helpful. Take care, see you.

You aren't an ordinary robot. You can live in harmony with nature. You learned the language of animals. You took care of a baby animal. You are a good robot.You are helpful. I think you shouldn't have left the forest. You should have continued to live in the forest, you should have continued to struggle. I hope you are happy.

Throughout the story ı tried to understand what you were feeling. I put myself in your shoes you have human emotions but you are not fully human. I can understand the dilemma you are experiencing. You tried to figure out what you are. You also witnessed the death of someone you loved. My advice to you is to stop comparing yourself to human or robots. You are neither. Accept yourself as you are. You do not have to be either robot or human.

Ayselin

I am writing this letter to you as someone who tries to understand the relationship between humanity and technology. The theories you have written about robots and your in-depth analysis of them have similarly played an important role in shaping my view of the world. The way a scientist like you thinks based on intelligence and logic has always impressed me.  Specifically, the empathy and scientific approach you show in your relationship with robots inspired me a lot. You tried to understand the emotional and ethical aspects of machines, ignoring the boundaries between humans and robots. This makes me question my perspective on both people and technology. Thank you for inspiring me in this way.

Yağmur

I hope you are doing well. I want to thank you for your hard work in developing robots. You are very smart, and your research helps people and robots live together.

I think robots are amazing because they can help humans in many ways. You always try to make them better and safer. I admire your intelligence and dedication. Without you, robots would not be as advanced as they are today.

Thank you for your great work!

Best wishes,

Halil İbrahim Yomtal

From Tuulia Pihlaja

Hello roz. For some you may just be a robot, for me you are an inspiration. I love the way you don't give up on things, and with each page you read you inspire me more, especially because you're just a robot and yet you have a lot of empathy. I really like the way you deal with being different and still managing, to make many friends, despite the difficulties. Furthermore, you managed to inspire several animals to be more loving towards each other. You are a wonderful robot, thank you for always showing fundamental messages such as empathy, sympathy and especially accepting differences.

Matilde Marafona 7 F

You are truly an amazing robot. I admire how you learned to survive on the island and care for others, especially Brightbill. You showed that love isn’t limited by wires and that kindness can transcend all boundaries. Even when things were difficult, you never gave up. You became a real friend to the animals and proved that love and compassion can change the world.

I cried at the first scene where ı thought you die but tren ı was very happy when ı saw you alive

Hi ROZ!

I hope you're good.

I just want you to know that i think that you're strory is so pretty and inspiring. I liked it so much that I really wanted to be part of it.

I know that you're just a robot, but you're do kind like a real human.

Unfortunally. I didn't had the chance of met you, but I really would like to.

I admired a lot the way you took care of brightbill, he is just a little animal, but you take care of him like he was you're son. You're AMAZING.

Goodbye!!

However, I have always wondered about your distant and sometimes harsh attitude towards robots. Do you see them as logical beings, or can we ever truly establish an emotional bond? In today's world, artificial intelligence is developing in very different directions than the robots of your time. Do you think the Three Laws of Robotics are still a solid enough framework in the face of today's technological advances.

I would love to talk to you about these issues. Thank you for your contributions to science and humanity.

Your kindness toward Brightbill and the other animals shows that being a family isn’t about being the same—it’s about love and care. You may be a robot, but you have one of the biggest hearts I’ve ever seen.

I hope wherever you are, you’re still finding your way, just like you always have. Stay strong, Roz.

With admiration,

Hatice

Perhaps the hardest thing to face is the moment when everything you believed to be true is suddenly questioned. Even someone like you, always a step ahead, must sometimes open their eyes to see the truth.

As a detective, trying to understand every human detail while viewing technology as a potential threat might be the most realistic approach to preserving human values. While robots promise to protect us by adhering to rules, it was the doubt within you that made you realize they might not be as good as they seem. In a way, it was a form of sacrifice: because while most people submit to the system, you saw how vulnerable they could become.

Sometimes, finding the "right" answer involves going against the ordinary and acceptable. For someone like you, this truth holds a deeper meaning. In a world ruled by order, algorithms, and rules, real humanity is the one thing that remains untainted. But finding what’s truly right in this world can sometimes feel like it requires doing something wrong—just as you did.

Perhaps accepting that not everything can be right is the beginning of finding a solution.

Your endless search is a reflection of the human condition. In a way, your struggles are all of ours.

With respect,

A fellow thinker

I want to read this to you because I feel like we are starting to understand each other. Even though we are very different, I think about what it means to be human—emotions, choices, and free will.

You are a robot, but you think and feel in your own way. I wonder, if a robot could feel like a human, would it be the same?

Even though you are not human, I think we can learn from each other. I hope one day, we can both understand the world better.

I hope this letter finds you safe and well in the wild. Your journey has been incredible, and I admire your strength, kindness, and ability to adapt. You were built to be a machine, but you became so much more—a mother, a friend, and a true part of nature.

Your love for Brightbill and your willingness to protect all the animals on the island show that real family is not about where you come from but about the care and love you give. You taught us that even a robot can have a heart, not made of metal but of compassion.

I wonder if you ever miss the island, the ocean, or the birds flying overhead. No matter where you are now, I believe you will always find a way to help others and to survive, just like you always have. You are proof that even in the wildest places, kindness can grow.

Thinking about your story, I feel that a robot is more than just codes. You were different you could think, imagine, and maybe even feel.

Your journey to discover freedom and your true self was inspiring. Your courage to shape your own destiny moved me. I hope there will always be a place in the world for conscious beings like you.

Best wishes,
Pelin

Dear Speedy,

I hope you’re doing well—wherever in the universe you are! Knowing you, you’re probably racing around on some distant planet, juggling a mission while cracking jokes. When I first read about you in Asimov’s stories, I couldn’t help but admire your unique personality. You’re not just any robot; you have style, energy, and a knack for making things... complicated.

But to be honest, you could have been a little more decisive! When you got stuck between the Three Laws of Robotics, instead of panicking, you could have sent a quicker signal to Powell and Donovan for help. Maybe if you were a bit less sensitive and focused directly on the solution, things would have been easier for you. Also, if you ever get assigned to a similar mission again, please don’t stop cheerfully singing while collecting valuable metal parts! Without your energy, space engineers would have a pretty boring life.

With admiration,

İbrahim

You began as a robot, simply programmed to do a job, but over time, you became something far greater. You learned the importance of caring, not just for yourself, but for those around you. Your actions proved that a robot could do much more than follow orders—it could protect, it could love, and it could stand up for what’s right.

Your strength came not from your mechanical body, but from the compassion you showed for Brightbill and the other creatures you cared for. The way you protected them, often risking your own safety, showed a level of bravery few would expect from a machine. You proved that true courage isn’t about power or force; it’s about protecting others when they need it the most.

Thank you for showing us that even a robot, who was created for a specific task, can grow beyond its programming and become something extraordinary. You’ve taught me that it’s not about what you are, but what you choose to become.

Warm Regards, Elif Su.

I have spent a lot of time reflecting on your work and your journey. You are a person who understands robots in ways that few others can. You see beyond their metal exterior, into their programming and logic, and you are able to grasp their behaviors with a clarity that is unmatched. Your ability to dissect the workings of these machines, to comprehend their thoughts, and to foresee their actions is truly extraordinary. But what strikes me most is how, in a world that often overlooks the complexity of emotions and human connections, you have remained so steadfast in your focus on logic and reason.

Your expertise is unparalleled, and your contributions to the world of robotics are immeasurable. You have not just helped to advance technology, but you have helped to shape our understanding of what it means to interact with machines that think, learn, and adapt. You’ve been at the forefront of guiding these intelligent beings, helping them to understand themselves and the world around them. But behind all of this, I sense that there is more to you than the scientist the world knows. I wonder if you ever feel conflicted between the world of logic you’ve built your career on and the deeper, more complicated world of emotions and human connections that you sometimes have to confront.

It’s easy to assume that someone as brilliant as you has all the answers. Yet, I wonder if, like many great minds, you sometimes feel that your understanding of machines and your work in robotics has distanced you from truly understanding yourself and those around you. It’s clear that you are a person of great intellect and strength, but perhaps there is a part of you that longs for something beyond the cold calculations and data you work with every day.

In a way, I believe that you are searching for balance, not just between logic and emotion, but between being a protector of robots and finding a way to connect with humans on a deeper level. Your ability to analyze the complexities of robots is awe-inspiring, but I hope that one day, you can find the same understanding within yourself and the people around you. You’ve dedicated your life to helping machines, and in doing so, you’ve changed the way we see technology. But perhaps, just as important, I hope you can find a way to allow yourself the same grace and understanding you so freely give to others.

Thank you, Dr. Calvin, for all you’ve done to shape the future of robotics. But I hope you also find a way to shape your own future with as much care and understanding as you have shown to the machines you’ve studied for so long.

Sincere regards, Elif Su.

 I write to you as an admirer of your work. Your ideas involving the Three Laws of Robotics have revolutionised our understanding of robots and their relationship with humanity. 

I must say I am in great admiration of how you are able to see robots not merely as machines but as complex beings with personalities of their own. Your empathy and insight into their motives are just wonderful, really.

 Your work has not only advanced robotic technology but caused us to evaluate the nature of ourselves and the place we hold in this world. Your ideas concerning consciousness, ethics, and tomorrow are now more relevant than ever. 

Thank you for your contribution towards making a better world for all of us. 

Yours sincerely, 

Ana Carvalho

Dear Roz

I hope my letter finds you well.

I’m writting this letter for you because I really love the book and the way you were brave and inteligent. I apreciate how you handle the dificult situation that you were in so well. I probably wouldn’t handle it the same. You did umcountable incredible things, raising a gooseling, learn to talk with animals, taking care of the otheres animals at the island, taking responsabilities, even when it wasn’t easy at all. I really apreciate you!

I enjoyed very much reading “The Wild Robot”, everthing about this book is amazing, all the characters, pictures, short chapters and the message of the history.

But I will like to ask you some questions about the book

What do you think that could happen if you never had find or saved BrightBill?

What if the animals hadn’t been very welcoming at the island?

What if BrigthBill hadn’t retornes from his first flight

What if you hadn’t manares to finish off the invading robots?

I will like to know what could be your respond for my questions.

• Bárbara Fernandes

Hello! My name is Eduarda, and I am 13 years old. I read your story and became very curious about you. I think it’s incredible how you managed to survive alone on an island full of animals and learned to live like them. It must have been very difficult at first!

I would like to ask you some questions:

– How did it feel when you first realized that the animals didn’t see you as one of them?

– What was the hardest part of learning to live in nature?

– Did you ever feel like you truly belonged on the island, as if you were an animal too?

– If you had the choice, would you rather stay on the island forever or explore the world beyond it?

I really admire your courage and your willingness to learn. You are a robot, but in a way, you have a heart. I think the animals see you as family, and that is very beautiful.

I hope you are doing well, wherever you are now. And who knows, maybe one day we can talk more!

With friendship,

Eduarda!

My name is Lídia and i am a seventh grader from Agrupamento de Escolas António Correia de Oliveira.

I hope that you are doing well, and that you could answer a few questions that i had about your story.

Your kindness, courage and calmness is astonishing, especially when you had to take care of a baby goose (which is a very big responsibility!) and you saved dozens of lives thanks to your shelters during winter. It´s just amazing what you did, back in the island, and you helped me think about robots in a completely different way! And i just hope that you keep on doing that great job and keep on inspiring many, just like you inspired me.

So i just had a few questions:

• If you had the chance to help other animals, just like you helped these animals in the island, would you accept it?

• If you could, would you explore the world, or would you remain at the island?

• And, was it hard to live in the nature as a robot?

Thank you for your time and i wish you the best!

With love,

Dear Dr. Calvin,

I hope this letter reaches you as soon as possible. I imagine that you are as immersed in your work as ever, I mean  you are deciphering the complexities of positronic brains and the three laws of robotics. I want to follow your Career, but I really can't, I wish I could tho. Your work has inspired me so much, and as a little hobby I now study robotics,  just in case I get an opportunity to maybe start working there too.  

According to your last analysis the lost root- the one who cleverly used the first law to avoid identification- that was crazy, and kinda scary to think how robots can learn things like that. In the future we must make sure that robots can't learn things like that without , a) permission to do so, or b) codes to do so.  we can't let that happen again can't we? I mean at least i think so, that also kinda broke the laws of robotics if you think from perspective, doesn't it?

with great admiration,

venla

I'm so happy to know you. At first I was surprised that you were a robot. It was very nice read about your efforts to survive in nature. Your development has taught me a lot. Your journey inspired me. You're a reminder to always keep learning and growing. Thank you Roz

Your story truly touched my heart. At first, you were just a robot who crash-landed on a wild island, but over time, you became so much more. I was amazed by how you learned to survive in nature, communicate with animals, and even become a mother to Brightbill.

The way you slowly earned the trust of the island creatures was beautiful. You didn’t give up, even when things were hard. You showed so much love and care, especially for Brightbill and the other animals. You proved that even a robot can have a heart.

Thank you for showing me that no matter how different we are, we can always learn, grow, and be kind. I’ll never forget your story.

With admiration,

Fatma Nur
