Review
This is another adventure for Ricky Ricotta and his mighty robot redone with illustration by Dan Santat. This time the evil General Jackrabbit tries to take over the Earth using giant rabbit-like dinosaurs. It is up to Ricky and his robot to save the day. This is a fun early chapter book. There are fabulous colorful drawings on every page by Dan Santat. The book has several pages that are more graphic novel style- less writing and more pictures which fits the story line perfectly. If you have an older copy of this story, swap it out for this version. The drawings make it come to life which will make it a hit with young readers. Excellent.
Overall Book Score: excellent
