Review
The Cucumber Quest series continues with "The Ripple Kingdom." We follow Cucumber, supposed hero of legend (though he doesn't want to be), his sister Almond (who wants to be a knight), as they continue their quest to defeat the Nightmare Knight. The illustrations are fabulous and the dialogue is very funny. Cucumber is a reluctant hero (he just wants to avoid danger and study all the time to become a mage) while Almond, who lives for fighting and danger, drags him along on their quest.
Overall Book Score: excellent
