Review
This is the 6th book in the series and Ricky and his robot are going to have to save the world again. But this time it is alien stink bugs and they have captured Ricky's cousin Lucy. Dan Santat's drawings really capture the action and fun of this adventure. The flip-o-rama pages are great and are sturdy enough, even in the paperback edition, to hold up to lots of use. The story line for this one wasn’t as strong as others in the series and it does use the word stupid several times, still, fans will gobble this one up as soon as they can get their hands on it.
Overall Book Score: very good
