Ricky Ricotta’s Mighty Robot Books

Jonah loves adventure and science and fantasy and Ricky Ricotta’s Mighty Robot Books are all of that combined.

Series Summary:
Dr. Stinky, an evil scientist who threatens to take over the world, has a malfunction with his robot when he would rather befriend a young mouse than terrorize the city. The robot teams up with Ricky Ricotta and together they save the galaxy from Dr. Stinky and anyone who tries to destroy it.
Our Thoughts:
The series is written by Dav Pilkey, creator of the Captain Underpants books, who knows how to capture a reluctant reader’s attention. While Captain Underpants may not be appropriate for young children, the Mighty Robot Books sure is. My son loved all of the adventures and the full-color illustrations in the book really caught his eye. I was amazed by how quickly he read the first book and immediately ask to read more of the series.
I feel pretty good about the story line and how Ricky and his Robert have to use problem solving skills to help save the world from Dr. Stinky. Its the type of adventure that I would like my kid to go on if he was living in a world with robots and mice who act like humans. This is a great series for young readers to get started with!
