#iLoveMG is my continuing series where I share middle grade books recommended by my fifth graders. (Please note that my fifth graders read a wide variety of books across a wide variety of genres, levels, and topics. Do not think that these books are "only" for fifth graders.) For younger readers, #3rdfor3rd for recommendations from when I taught third grade.
My book is called A Rover’s Story and it is about a Mars Rover that is named Resilience and his nickname is Res. What is different about this rover is that he has emotions and when another rover who is the exact same model as he is, Res is not sure of himself and does not know if his emotion are a good or bad thing. When he starts to talk to his drone named Fly he is assured that his emotions will serve him well and feels comforted.

Recommended by FelixMy book is called A Rover’s Story and it is about a Mars Rover that is named Resilience and his nickname is Res. What is different about this rover is that he has emotions and when another rover who is the exact same model as he is, Res is not sure of himself and does not know if his emotion are a good or bad thing. When he starts to talk to his drone named Fly he is assured that his emotions will serve him well and feels comforted.
But when he is shot into space and he lands he now know how it feels to be terrified, angered, and shocked.
I think this is a great book because Res learns what it means to be family and that he does not need to prove himself beyond the point of one scientific breakthrough.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes family and adventure. Definitely 10/5 stars.
