Summary
A Rover’s Story by Jasmine Warga is a heartfelt and imaginative novel that explores the journey of a Mars rover named Resilience (“Res”) as it learns about life, emotions, and humanity. Told partly from Res’s perspective and partly through letters written by a young girl named Sophie—the daughter of one of the rover’s engineers—the story beautifully blends science, curiosity, and emotion. Warga gives Res a distinct personality, showing how it begins to understand concepts like friendship, love, and courage while facing the harsh and lonely environment of Mars. The novel captures the wonder of exploration and the human desire to connect, making it both touching and thought-provoking. It’s a perfect read for middle-grade audiences, balancing humor, warmth, and scientific wonder in a story that feels both futuristic and deeply human.
