The OES Big Read is a one book, one school literacy event hosted by USD 392. In 2022 our featured book is The Wild Robot by Peter Brown. Each student in kindergarten through grade five received a paperback copy of the book courtesy of the Osborne County Community Foundation and USD 392.
The Wild Robot is the story of a robot named Roz lost in the wilderness of a remote, wild island. It is a battle of survival that pits the robot against Mother Nature and the animal inhabitants of the island. Will she survive in the wild or return to civilization given the opportunity?
