For stamina and fitness are not enough to triumph - only self-belief and courage will carry Ronaldo over the finish line.

Can a robot survive in the wilderness? When robot Roz opens her eyes for the first time, she discovers that she is 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. As Roz slowly befriends the animals, the island starts to feel like home - until, one day, the robot's mysterious past comes back to haunt her.

The Vanderbeekers have always lived in the brownstone on 141st Street. It's practically another member of the family. So when their reclusive, curmudgeonly landlord decides not to renew their lease, the five siblings have 11 days to do whatever it takes to stay in their beloved home and convince the dreaded Beiderman just how wonderful they are. And all is fair in love and war when it comes to keeping their home. A modern classic in the making reminiscent of the Penderwicks series.

Favorite Children's Classic with a Twist
Ronaldo is a reindeer who is in flying academy and wants to impress his idol who is one of Santa's reindeer. The story talks about bullying, trying your best, and even if others aren't nice to you doesn't mean you shouldn't help them if they end up in trouble. That if you persevere good things can happen.

Wonderful story!
My grandson & I loved Ronaldo by Maxine Sylvester. The story is about a reindeer in flying school who wants to be one of Santa’s team. It is a funny story, complete with kid humor, and is a tale of perseverance to reach your goals, friendship, and encouragement. The narration by the author is also wonderful. Who better to bring her own story to life?! Highly recommended!
